In the incident-full Brazilian GP sprint, Alonso dropped to 18th while he eventually started the Saturday Sprint in seventh. The Spaniard started the sprint behind his French teammate Esteban Ocon in sixth. The two made contact in the opening lap of the sprint race.
Alonso later communicated the damage to his car on the team radio as he said, “Just lost the front wing. Thanks to our friend.”
This is one of many instances Alpine has let Alonso and Ocon battle it out on the track. A little healthy competition never hurt anybody, right?
However, Alonso’s fight with Ocon reminded Hamilton fans of a statement Alonso made not long ago. “I have a lot of respect for Lewis, but still it is different when you win seven world titles when you only had to fight with your team-mate,” said Alonso in a recent interview.
