I am Fernando Alonso. I drive for Aston Martin in Formula One. I am 41 years of age. I was born and raised in the country of Spain., specifically in Oveido in Asturias. I started karting at the age of five, when my sister did not take interest in karting; the kart was gifted to me instead at the mere age of three. My first karting wins were in '88 and '89. Ahead of that, I've started Formula One in 2001 for Minardi. 2002 was when I begun my road to my very first championship for Renault, in '05.
