Lewis hamilton is attacking Carlos Sainz, but the Madrid man defended himself very well with a strong inside brake. Alonso took advantage of that to open up more at that point with the intention of accelerating inside before and past both. He passed Hamilton and with great speed he reached the back of Carlos’ car. But there, Sainz went left, inflated himself. Alonso, to avoid the impact if he continued to accelerate, had to brake to avoid hitting the wall. The Asturian did not like the action and assured that they will study to lodge a complaint with the team to claim the 5th place in Sainz in this sprint appointment. Carlos Sainz finished in 5th position (4 points) and alonso finished 6th (3 points).

“We added points today, starting eighth was not easy. I think even Let’s see now if we can do fifth because, the truth is that Carlos (Sainz) took me to the wall in turn 2, which was a bit… uh… surprising. But hey, let’s see if they can do something and we can win that position.”Alonso commented on ‘DAZN F1’.

Sainz, surprised

“Now I’m out of my mind”Sainz said on ‘DAZN F1’, when he was told what Alonso said.

“I think it was when I was defending against Hamilton at the start, right? Well, defending what I could, doing what I could to stay ahead of Lewis, and then Fernando also surprised me. He joined the battle and I obviously tried to get as wide as I could on the track. I think it’s been a good fight, and nothing, is what it is”said the man from Madrid.
