The total F1 points amased by Fernando Alonso is 2325 and not 2323 as stated in the article, the editor forgot to add 2 points to the total after his promotion from 9th postion to 8th position following the disqualification of George Russell at the 2024 Belgian GP, The racing record of Fernando adds upto 2325 points and so does the official F1 website also acknowledges the number of 2325, so the updated number for Fernando Alonso's total F1 points would 2325 and not 2323. 2001:569:FE24:6600:9888:DA09:C6AB:102 (talk) 19:43, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fixed He was credited with the two extra points following Russell's disqualification from the Belgian GP - see this edit, but we must have missed 2 points somewhere else along the line. Thanks for pointing out the error. DH85868993 (talk) 21:57, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello! i am new to edditing on wikipedia, so im assuming this is asking permission to edit the wikipedia site, basically on the second paragraph - "Born and raised in Oviedo to a working class family, Alonso began kart racing aged three and won several regional, national and continental titles. He progressed to junior formulae aged 17, winning the Euro Open by Nissan in 1999 before finishing fourth in International Formula 3000. Alonso signed for Minardi in 2001, making his Formula One debut at the Australian Grand Prix. After a non-scoring rookie season, he joined Renault as a test driver before his promotion to a full-time seat in 2003; he became the then-youngest polesitter and race winner at the Malaysian and Hungarian Grands Prix, respectively, before achieving several podiums across his 2004 campaign. Alonso won his maiden title after winning seven Grands Prix in 2005, becoming the first World Drivers' Champion from Spain and the then-youngest in Formula One history, aged 24. He successfully defended his title from Michael Schumacher in 2006. Alonso moved to McLaren for 2007, finishing one point behind champion Kimi Räikkönen and returning to Renault amidst inter-team tensions. He won multiple races in 2008—including the controversial Singapore Grand Prix—before enduring a winless 2009 campaign"
there is a misspell "formulae" and i wanted to fix that, sorry its a small fix but its all that i could find, i even searched for an hour is something called formulae exists. I though maybe i was just missing something, but alas i could not find anything. So that is why i am asking to edit this page, Thank you for your time!. P.S 2026 is Fernandos year i JUST KNOW IT. 24.189.101.162 (talk) 00:37, 25 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

The racing career in general should be extended, I understand that the article would get more extense but there shouldn't be gaps like the non-existent coverage of Alonso's 2024 and 2025 seasons. Just like his teammate Lance Stroll's page or Alonso's page in Spanish, it should be organized in a season-by-season way instead of the current indexation by teams, because this leads to massive holes in his Formula 1 career, his most important one in my opinion. Thank you for your time and consideration. ~2025-41021-77 (talk) 09:25, 17 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
Consensus is to not overload the infobox with unnecessary statistics. The infobox should not be used as a substitute for writing sentences in the main body of the article. --Falcadore (talk) 04:43, 24 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
clearly, im not arguing to substitute writing sentences in the main body of the article, but recommend looking up the rationale of infoboxes.
evidently, the infobox is overloaded as is. its 100 lines tall and almost reaches into the third section for me.
if that really was the consensus, it would be rid of
his list of former partners,
either the entry of this or next years team (which coincidentally are literally the same),
First entry, First win, Last win, Last entry,
everything below "Previous series", at the very least have it collapsed,
the lower half of the image; yet for some reason, it isnt.
its absurd to include racing statistics with former teams but no mention thereof.
its not an unnecessary but central statistic of a racing driver. its ridiculous to include all his former girlfriends but not former teams in formula one.
For current drivers, the convention is to only list the current team (or the team(s) for the previous and next seasons if we're between seasons as we are now); for drivers who have retired, all teams are listed - see Template:Infobox F1 driver. DH85868993 (talk) 08:53, 24 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
