Plácido Domingo visited the Fernando Alonso Museum in Oviedo.

      Plácido Domingo, the world-famous Spanish operatic singer and conductor, visited the Fernando Alonso Museum in Oviedo and shared his impressions on his social media pages.

      "With great joy I visited the Fernando Alonso Museum, of our remarkable driver, a two-time world champion, and my guide was his father, José Luis Alonso, a completely charming man. I experienced the strongest emotions; I was overwhelmed with pride!" commented the legendary tenor.

      The driver himself was not in Oviedo at the time; Fernando is currently at a training camp in the Dolomites preparing for the upcoming season.

      At the end of January Plácido Domingo will turn 85; his artistic career has spanned more than six decades, during which he has performed over 150 operatic roles. At the same time, the maestro is interested not only in the art to which he has devoted his life, but has long loved Formula 1 and has often attended Grands Prix, where he has chatted in a friendly way not only with Spanish drivers but also, for example, with Jackie Stewart and Bernie Ecclestone.
