Alonso is yet to decide on Formula 1 future: 'We are waiting for his decision'

The two-time world champion previously said that he would make his decision about his future during the summer break. According to his team's Chief Trackside Officer, no final decision has been made yet.

"Yeah, I mean the discussion has been going on for many, many months already. I think Fernando was always saying that he will take a decision around the summer time. And I think we will see a decision in the coming weeks," he told GPblog, among others.

The Luxemburger added: "I think we're waiting for his decision, as I said, and then we will see."

Asked about rumors linking other drivers to the team, Krack was clear. He explained: "No, I think we always said that the focus is to continue with Fernando. And as I said, we are quite confident that we will reach a good outcome. On the other hand, we have to respect Fernando's request to make his own decision, and we have to wait for that."

In previous interviews, Alonso made it clear that he wanted to remain with Aston Martin, but he was yet to decide on his role. The Spaniard also believes that the team will become world champions; the only question is when.

One driver did make a decision about his future that was announced today. Max Verstappen will remain with Red Bull Racing until the end of the 2030 Formula 1 season.

After signing a new deal, the four-time world champion said: "I am really pleased with the contract extension. We have the best people and I’m excited to keep working together with everyone to get back to the top again. This remains the ultimate goal that all of us have been working towards and will continue to pursue. I want to thank Red Bull, Laurent and everyone at Oracle Red Bull Racing for the trust they put in me."
