Alpin counted the number of toxic comments in social networks addressed to them after the sprint in Brazil

Formula 1 team Alpin expressed outrage at the number of “toxic comments” in social networks to your address.

The day before, on November 12, in the sprint qualification for the Brazilian Grand Prix, Alpin pilots Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso took 17th and 18th places, respectively. During the sprint, the pilots fought each other, there was contact between the cars, after which Alonso went to an unscheduled pit stop. The stewards added 5 seconds of penalty to the final result of the Spaniard.

“Whatever happens on the track, there is absolutely no excuse for offensive or toxic comments about our drivers, team members, fans or anyone on the Web.

Of all the comments we received on our social media during and after sprint qualifiers, 882 were toxic, 162 of them overly toxic. This is completely unacceptable.

What we saw today, unfortunately, is not an isolated case. We continue to see hate and discrimination online and as a team we will not tolerate this.

We will take action against individuals or groups of individuals who create or distribute social media posts that contain or encourage insults against our pilots, team members and fans.

The Brazilian Grand Prix will take place on November 13. Starting at 21:00 (Moscow time).

    Three Formula 1 teams filed a lawsuit due to the possible technical advantage of Mercedes and Red Bull

    The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.

    In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.

    According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.

    — The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA ​​said in a statement.

    The FIA ​​does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
