Daniel Ricciardo Joins Toto Wolff to Brutally Mock Fernando Alonso for Dramatic on Track Antics

Remember how Toto Wolff became an internet sensation for his “No Mikey No” radio call and throwing the headphone? Looks like the F1 community just got another chance as Toto Wolff brutally mocked Fernando Alonso for his overdramatic pit lane shenanigans. What’s next? The mischievous Daniel Ricciardo joined forces with Toto Wolff. What did Toto Wolff do?

Lewis Hamilton made fiery comments against Fernando Alonso after yesterday’s qualifying. The Briton suggested that he will push Fernando Alonso like hell as he started the race behind him. Lewis Hamilton got a better start and overtook the Spaniard going into Turn 1. However, Fernando Alonso stuck to his gearbox and got the DRS services. Unfortunately, George Russell rode the turn 8 & 9 chicane and binned it in the wall, calling out the safety car.

Most of the cars, including Hamilton and Alonso, decided to pit. Alonso had a marginally faster pit stop and was right there when Mercedes decided to release the Briton. At first glance, it looked like it was an unsafe release from Mercedes as Fernando Alonso frantically moved his steering wheel from side to side. However, in the replay, it was realized that it was just an exaggeration from Alonso who tried to push Hamilton under the bus and attract a penalty toward him.

After the incident, stewards declared that no further investigation is required. In the replays, Toto Wolff was seen imitating Fernando Alonso moving his hand from side to side. Wolff made a funny face while doing so, indicating that he was mocking Alonso. Daniel Ricciardo, who’s fulfilling commentary duties with ESPN, also suggested that Fernando Alonso exaggerated the incident.

Fernando Alonso passed Lewis Hamilton with a bold move

After the pit stops panned out and the safety car came in, Fernando Alonso was once again back on Lewis Hamilton’s gearbox. The Spaniard did not seem like giving up and sent it on Lap 22. Coming out of the final hairpin, Alonso had a mega run and DRS. He pulled out, braked later than Hamilton, managed to keep the tires spinning and not lock up, went on the inside of the final chicane, and overtook the Briton.

The overtake was due for 22 laps and Alonso finally got the better of his once arch-nemesis. As we speak, the second round of pitstops has been made with Alonso on Hard and Hamilton opting for Medium. Hamilton is catching up. Let’s see who gets the better of whom this time around.
