He told CNN that he was "feeling good." "It was a very special moment because after returning to Formula One, we don't have to prove things, but it's a lot of dedication and sacrifice to go back to Formula and shape it again. At the age of 40. And when you get good results, it's somehow [a] reassurance and proof that you're working very hard to get those results. "

Almost Alonso doesn't like to lose, like his athlete, but he's the second stint of sports that changed his perspective between him.

"Over time, I realize that I need a package to win in F1. One day, I'm not just getting some weird inspiration and delivering some magic." He said.

"In F1, there isn't much magic. You need the right car and the right day to do it, so I'm trying to build that car that can win that package in Alpine. Yes, but I enjoy the process of doing it. That's not the frustration that's why you can't win.

"I can't win. Yeah, sure. But lucky. Especially, this time I took a break in Formula One and tried various categories such as Le Mans 24-hour race, Indy Car, Dakar, Daytona etc. with durability. I felt victory again in all these categories. I was on the podium, and I think that was enough to reset these winning needs.}
