It’s a third place, but Fernando Alonso it has tasted like triumph. In the first race of the Asturian driver with his new Aston Martin car at the Bahrain Grand Prix, Alonso did not hesitate to celebrate in style with his girlfriend, the Austrian journalist Andrea Schlager, who was covering the race for the Servus TV channel. They both melted into a romantic and effusive hug, and the journalist published a proud praise for her boy on her social networks: “I have never seen such determination, will and hard work. I am happy for you from the bottom of my heart.” .
And it is that at 41 years old Fernando is living the best of moments both personally and professionally. The Asturian and the journalist, who is only one year younger than her boyfriend, have had a sentimental relationship for more than a year and a half, which they finally made public last May, and which continues to strengthen, in view of the public manifestations of his love.

Fernando is in love and he is also doing much better professionally than he expected. After reaching third place with his new team, the Spaniard recognized that “seeing that the project is going so well is something amazing. Everyone works hard; the people in the factory too, they are all like motorcycles”, is a reason for pride for him. At his age, Fernando is the oldest of all the drivers competing in the F1 World Championship: “It’s a dream come true, I thought we wouldn’t even get a podium finish in 2023”, he said, absolutely happy with the result.
Logically, Alonso celebrates any victory with his girlfriend, since she is a prestigious journalist in her country, always related to sports information, and a great fan of motor racing since her youth. Andrea regularly covers the Formula 1 and Moto GP world championships for the Austrian television, ServusTV.
As the communicator that she is, she does not hide any of the happy moments that she spends with her boyfriend, from dinners or trips, to nice words like the congratulations she published on the pilot’s birthday: “The first of many adventures together. Thank you for being in my life, my love. Congratulations”.
