Also not sure how I feel about the Alonso penalty. Are they just going to start penalizing the back markers too?

What total BULL SNOT! They say they didn’t take the crash into account but the only reason they looked into Alonso’s driving was because Russell crashed. Alonso had tried different things in that area over the weekend. Did everyone forget that he had an off in qualifying at that very same corner? His response as to how drivers have to change what they do to save fuel, tires, brakes etc. made perfect sense. And what about Albon’s crash? The same effing corner! So on the last lap of a race of course Alonso is going to try and get the best drive out while not putting himself in a position where he might crash.
Yes and what about all the back markers and the dumb ass moves some of them made? Why aren’t the marshals and the stewards getting raked over the coals for not throwing and red flag and stopping all cars immediately? Didn’t they hear poor Russell SCREAMING; “Red flag! Red flag! Red flag! I’m in the middle of the track! Red flag! Red flag! Red! Red! Red! Red! Red! “I’m in the middle! Red! F*cking hell!” Talk about dangerous…

How come its always Sainz who wins when its not Max?
Is it not Perez job to do that... Alonso gets punished for racing, “potentially dangerous” this is getting a bit too woke, smells like an appeal in the works. George has been hanging around HAM enough to be squealing when things are not going his perfect way. Ill give it to Ferrari, this time they pulled off a great race as a team. Additional frustration: Mike Krack (AM) says he will not appeal the decision on Alonso, Come on! Last edited by The Red One; 03-24-2024 at 03:35 PM. Reason: Additional frustration: |

It looked to me like Russell was a bit over focused on his line and got caught out by Alonso going slower than expected. Racing incident.

I agree it is nonsense to dish out that penalty. |
