Fernando Alonso Blasts Team After Miami Sprint Drama

Former Formula 1 champion, Fernando Alonso, has ignited a firestorm within his team following a dramatic incident with Liam Lawson during the Miami Sprint race. The clash ended with Alonso crashing into the barriers and missing out on a potential top-8 finish, which could have boosted his season points tally significantly.

Amidst a flurry of pit stops to switch to slick tires, Alonso found himself in eighth place with Lawson hot on his heels. Despite attempts to defend his position with colder tires in turn 12, Lawson capitalized on better grip to make a move on the outside, ultimately colliding with the rear right side of Alonso’s Aston Martin, sending him careening into the barriers.

Alonso was quick to criticize his team for the delayed switch to slick tires, stating, “During the race, I was behind Hamilton and Albon. I asked for dry tires for several laps, but the team did not see them as necessary.” The Spaniard expressed his disappointment, highlighting that if the team had acted promptly, they could have been competing for a podium finish alongside Hamilton.

The Spanish driver refrained from commenting on the incident itself, emphasizing that he shouldn’t have even been in that position to begin with. Alonso’s frustration with the missed opportunity and the team’s decision-making process was palpable as he vented his grievances to the media.

The fallout from the Miami Sprint race has left Alonso and his team at odds, raising questions about communication and strategy within the outfit. As the tension simmers, all eyes are on how the team will address Alonso’s concerns and strive for better performance in the upcoming races.
