After overtaking lewis hamilton at the start, Fernando Alonso met with Carlos Sainz. But she had no room to pass him. Something that Aston Martin will “study” in case there could be a sanction. It was Fernando himself who commented on it at the end of the sprint.
“We have added points today, we are going to see if we get fifth because Carlos has taken me against the wall in turn 2which has been a surprising movement”, has released the Asturian.
And Sainz responded: “I don’t have the movement in my head… I think it was when I was defending myself from Hamilton at the restart. I was doing what I can to stay ahead of Lewis and Fernando surprised me. I have made myself as wide as I could make myself. It is what it is…”.
Regarding the DRS and the problems that Alonso has been having all weekend, he was pleased that it worked in the sprint: “The DRS has worked. I think it has been the word that we have used the most in the whole team”.
“Every session we have had problems. At least it has worked in the race. We will analyze it tonight and If there is a small change that needs to be made, we will analyze it as well.“, has sentenced the two-time F1 champion.
