Alex Palou is fighting an over 20M lawsuit with McLaren, and amid this, he has dropped the name of Fernando Alonso in court while highlighting the latter's failed Indy 500 qualification attempt with McLaren in 2019. In line with this, fans from all over the globe have come forward with their reactions. The reigning IndyCar champion, Alex Palou, recently appeared in the London Courts, and while giving his testimony, he took the name of Fernando Alonso and added:"Fernando Alonso is a two-time F1 champion and probably one of the best drivers in the recent era. In fact, many people would say the best. In 2019, Fernando tried to qualify for the Indy 500 with McLaren. However, he failed to qualify against a driver who was a rookie and had no previous experience in Indy 500." (Via: Motorsport).
