Alonso wirelessly charges Alpine

Fernando Alonso finished 7th in the F1 Japan GP, ​​the same place he started. The Spaniard failed to surprise in wet conditions. A man from Oviedo, who had bet on Saturday that he would take a risk if it rained on Sunday, accused him of not doing so. Vettel, who was last on the race restart, stopped to put on intermediate tires as soon as the race resumed after the first red flag interruption, a strategy that saw him finish sixth. Alpine chose another one that hurt Asturias.

The man from Oviedo stayed on the track while Ocon, who was fifth, entered to get the Intender on the lap. Alonso wasted no time waiting for his teammate’s tires to be changed, so in that moment he could not stop. He remained on the asphalt for one more lap, situationally leading the race, and stopped after one lap, returning to the track in seventh place.

Ultimately, the Spaniard tried to continue his attack, but Alpine stopped him too late to put in a new set of intermediates with a few laps to go. He returned to the track in 10th and was able to do nothing to return to the final 7th. For all these reasons, at the end of the race Fernando made it clear on the radio that he was not happy with Wall’s decision for his team. This year to me,” the Asturian pointed out.

He then explained what happened in a statement released by “AS”, explaining with a final sarcasm: I ended up in the exact same spot where I started.In both cases they were on the radio begging me to stop early but I don’t know.My mic must have been disconnected today.The rest A few laps, but I don’t know what they were doing. I missed my chance,” he concludes.

“In the car there was a bit of chaos within the team.”

“The whole weekend was weird and the race had to be like this. At the beginning it was extreme tires (on the restart after the red flag). I stopped too late to let the intermediates in and lost position. I lost. I told him to stop one more time at the end, but I think it was six laps to go, so I missed a lap or two to gain some places.”

“Then I didn’t know if it was the last lap of the race. They warned me at the last corner. I think it was the same for everyone, but in the car there was a bit of confusion within the team and I wasn’t. “I’m not completely happy, but I think it’s been a difficult weekend and a difficult Sunday for the FIA ​​as well. Now Max is world champion. Twenty minutes ago it wasn’t… Sunday. To.”

“The truth is that we have to discuss it with the FIA. After 2014, with the Jules[Bianchi]accident, the whole system was changed a bit to make sure it never happened again. And today on the track. I saw a crane”…With or without the safety car, yellow flag or red flag.Tow trucks on the track must only leave when the car is in the pit lane or when the race is incapacitated So we will try. Help the FIA ​​understand how it happened and who gave the orders. It’s hard to say now.”
