The Canadian Grand Prix had started very well for Fernando Alonso, since he had won second place in the Qualy on Saturday, but his vehicle was again not up to par and it was for this reason that he finished the race in seventh place. But from the FIA terrible news came to the Spaniards.
The Big brother It’s a topic that’s been in everyone’s eyes lately, ever since its dispute with Mercedes over car rebound and its as-yet-unconfirmed Alpine F1 renewal, it’s been in the news all the time. And with this sanction that he received from the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile, surely Fernando Alonso he will have plenty of material before the start of the competition at Silverstone.
The FIA, after an investigation involving Spaniard and Alfa Romeo driver Valtteri Bottas, decided to penalize the French team by five seconds. This result alters the Top 10 of the 2022 Canadian Grand Prix and leaves the Spaniard in ninth position. In addition, he adds with this unit received six penalty points on his license.
Yes OK Fernando Alonso and the Finn said, the decision taken by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile can currently be appealed by Alpine F1. The problem is that they don’t believe history can be changed, no matter how many protests, and they believe the decision won’t change anything.
The incident took place between turns 10 and 12, as stated in the press release published by the FIA, and this is where the Big brother This would have forced Bottas to reduce his speed in the face of the defensive maneuvers made. From now on, the Spaniard will have to take his revenge in two weeks, during the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
possible suspension
Something to know Fernando Alonso in the current Formula 1 season is the number of penalty units you currently have on your licence. This penalty imposed by the FIA left him with six points and this could cause him problems, if the amount increases over the races.
It is that in case of reaching 12 in the period of one year -those that have accumulated are not from all the competitions that took place in 2022 and come from previous seasons-, the Nano must respect a date without running a Grand Prix as a punishment. Very difficult for that to happen, but the Asturian’s luck isn’t the best right now and that’s why it can’t be ruled out that it could happen.
