Alunni Bravi, who is Alfa Romeo’s tea♛m representative, said he “would always sign Fernando” given the chance.

“I would always sign Fernando, even at 45 years or more,” Alunni Bravi told Mundo Deportivo.

“He is a champi⭕on. You don’t win two F1 World titles if you don’t have certain characteristics. It’s a pleasure for me t🥀o see him.”
