Fernando Alonso will do his part to keep Sebastian Vettel out of harm at the start of his final race. F1 🇦🇪 AbuDhabiGP
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will bring the curtain down on a legendary career for Vettel, one which has produced four World Championships, claimed in successive seasons between 2010-13 at Red Bull.
Alonso said that he and the other drivers were staying extra vigilant in qualifying as to avoid putting a potential damper on Vettel’s Saturday, and for Alonso this will continue into the race as he hopes to see Vettel safely get beyond the start and opening lap, with the goal of them both seeing the chequered flag.
“It’s not that we tried to help him, but we all tried to have an eye on him when we saw him in the mirror, when he’s coming on a fast lap or whatever, because we want a smooth weekend for him.
