Fernando Alonso has reflected on his Formula 1 finale as a “magic weekend” as he thanked fellow world champions Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel for the improvised donut celebrations after Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
But Alonso still celebrated his last race in F1 by doing donuts alongside Vettel and Hamilton at the Yas Marina Circuit before stepping out of his McLaren on the start/finish straight next to the podium finishers.
Alonso, who takes part in a special McLaren event in Bahrain on Monday with NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson, says he’s eager to keep racing in 2019.
