Why F1 icon Fernando Alonso fears pointless season for Aston Martin
- Fernando Alonso, driving for Aston Martin, is concerned about the team's performance and the possibility of not scoring any points in the 2025 F1 season.
- He has yet to score points after five races, his worst performance since his rookie year in 2001.
- Alonso believes it will be challenging to score points this year due to Aston Martin's lack of pace compared to other teams.
- Teammate Lance Stroll has earned the team's only points so far, with a sixth and ninth-place finish.
- Despite the current struggles, Aston Martin is investing heavily in improvements, including a new factory, wind tunnel, and the hiring of Adrian Newey.
