Fernando Alonso leaves door open for Le Mans return with Verstappen

June 21, 2026

Fernando Alonso has indicated he could return to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the future, particularly if paired with Max Verstappen.

The two-time Formula 1 champion made the comments during an on-stage interview in Barcelona. Alonso won the endurance classic in 2018 and 2019 with Toyota.

He ruled out a return to IndyCar but expressed interest in other challenges. These include a possible Dakar Rally victory and completing a rare triple crown of successes in Formula 1, endurance racing and rallying.

Alonso remains committed to Aston Martin in Formula 1. After seven rounds of the 2026 season he sits 18th in the drivers' championship with one point, while the team is 10th in the constructors' standings.
