Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso has had a deep love for padel for over fifteen years. Whenever he has the opportunity, he leaves the circuits to join the padel courts. During the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Mexico, he shared some anecdotes.

Recently, the Aston Martin driver introduced his young teammate, George Russell, to the sport. They have already had the opportunity to play together several times. And this new duo presents an astonishing statistic: “I've been doing this sport for about 15 years, but George just started and he surprised me. We only played together once, so we have a 100% win rate,” he said jokingly.

In addition to being a padel enthusiast, Fernando Alonso has launched his own clothing brand, Kimoa. The presentation of this initiative took place at the Wynwood club in Miami, in the presence of Pedro de la Rosa, ambassador of Aston Martin, former tennis player Juan Martín Del Potro, as well as Peter Alonso, padel player.

It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
