Fernando Alonso is set to continue racing in Formula 1, committing to the 2027 season with Aston Martin. Multiple outlets report that the Spaniard, aged 45, has agreed to extend his deal for what would be his 24th year in the sport.
The reports say Alonso will remain with Aston Martin alongside Lance Stroll. They also note that there had been speculation about retirement as Alonso approaches his mid-40s, including that he will turn 46 in 2027. Sky Sports describes the move as an extension of his current agreement to cover the 2027 campaign.
Across the coverage, the central focus is Alonso’s decision to stay in F1 and his belief that he can still compete. While the sources differ only slightly in emphasis—some focusing on the length of his commitment, others on his ongoing partnership with Aston Martin—the factual details of the extension through 2027 are consistent.
