Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer confirmed that his squad had only been willing to offer Alonso a one-year deal with an option for a second, but said the second year would have been automatically secured had Alonso hit performance criteria“We offered him a one-plus-one deal,” said Szafnauer.
“It’s hard to predict the future. So we offered a one-plus-one deal.
“And we discussed with Fernando that, ‘look, if next year at this time you’re performing at the same level, of course we will take you’. And that could have carried on.
“But I think he wanted more certainty – ‘independent of performance, I want to stay for longer’.”
Having turned 41 last week, Alonso is the oldest driver on the current F1 grid by four years. Should he stay on to the upper end of his personal prediction, he would still be racing in F1 when he was 44, by which time he would have contested over 420 grands prix and be 24 years on from his debut with Minardi in 2001.
He has always vehemently rejected any suggestion that his age might affect his performances, joking last year that at 40 he would beat his 23-year-old self “one-handed”.
Alpine CEO Laurent Rossi had openly suggested at the French Grand Prix in late July that when Alonso finished racing in F1 he could move across to Alpine’s World Endurance Championship programme, a prospect Alonso – who won both the WEC title and two editions of the Le Mans 24 Hours with Toyota during his late-2010s F1 hiatus – then distanced himself from, saying “even thinking about sportscars or Indy or whatever is like, ‘not now’.”

Szafnauer said Alonso was well aware of Alpine’s sportscar hopes for him and had not objected.
“We had conversations with Fernando and so did Laurent, regarding ‘when you do finish in Formula 1, we would love for you to continue in the family and go do other racing with Alpine’,” Szafnauer insisted.
“So it wasn’t really a surprise to Fernando because he agreed to do that and thought it was a good idea.
“The question was when will that happen? But when it does happen, going to Le Mans, he was absolutely happy to continue down that road.”
