Why would Alonso realistically be any worse than his 2023 form?
His pace gaps have increased marginally since then, he consistently gets some of the best starts on the grid (which he just wouldn't if his reaction times were affected by age). Hamilton who was similar in performance in 2023 (in ground effect era which he generally struggled at) - is performing well against Leclerc. Give me actual evidence for him being any worse than 2023 that isnt just reliant on the principle of slower reaction times with age, because he 1. Clearly hasnt lost significant reaction speed and also for driving on the limit, reaction speed isnt as important as most think.
