Albono sat down to answer some more of your fan questions from throughout the 2024 season! See what our No.23 had to say below...
If you could choose a track to race in the future, what would it be?
“I'm going to be very biassed. I would love to race in Thailand and there are talks about a Thai GP happening. So definitely fingers crossed for that in the future. If we are talking about a current circuit that I would like to race, I would say the Nurburgring. To have a crazy race where it's something like an eight minute lap-ten lap race, that would be quite special.”
Which F1 driver from the past would you want to have as a teammate?
“As I’ve said before, my hero was Michael Schumacher, growing up in that era. So I think if I was teammates with Michael, that would be very special.”
If you were allowed to listen to music while you were driving, what song would it be?
“I don’t actually listen to a lot of music but if I had to, it’d need to be something relaxing. There's some drivers who would listen to heavy metal before they drive to get them really in the zone and motivated. For me, it's actually the opposite, I need to be relaxed. So maybe even something sad, like a James Blunt song. We're going to go for that.”
How do you cope with missing your animals at home?
“So, luckily I have a huge family. Not just in terms of cats - I have 12 cats, a dog and two horses, but I also have a big family. I have four siblings - three sisters, a brother and the rest of my family, so they're always very well taken care of. I do miss them, but I actually spend so much time now in the UK with all the simulator work. So I always go back to my family home in the UK, which means I get to see them a lot.”
Who is the funniest driver on the grid?
“Oh, it's a good question. I think Daniel has the most natural kind of comedy about him. He’s very naturally funny. He's got that confidence as well where he could do stand-up and I think he'd do fine.”
