The Canadian has scored only 47 points so far in 2023 compared to the 183 of Alonso, and a series of incidents – notably the huge qualifying crash in Singapore that caused him to miss the race – have not helped.
Then, last time out in Qatar, he caused controversy when TV cameras caught him throwing away his steering wheel and then seemingly pushing his trainer after he failed to make it through Q1.
Alonso says he is trying to help Stroll to solve his issues in whatever way he can.
“We are all helping him,” said Alonso. “I'm trying to do my best as well, my part.
“If I find something in the car that I feel more comfortable, I'm obviously listening to all the debriefs, because we are together in the same room.
“Whatever difficulty that he's expressing, I'm trying to remember what could have been a help for me in the past, or in set-up or whatever.
“So yeah, we are working very close together to find the right path for the team, and try to score points with both cars.”
