P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Fernando Alonso was forthright in sharing his feelings about team radio messaging being broadcast during grands prix, arguing they are sometimes “unnecessary” and “poorly” chosen.

Fernando Alonso criticized F1 for its “poorly broadcast” nature, where out-of-context team radio messages are aired, leading to misunderstandings and frustration, as seen during the Singapore Grand Prix.

Alonso’s rant at Lewis Hamilton resulted in a light-hearted response from Hamilton but highlighted the dissatisfaction with broadcasting quality and selective use of team radio in F1.

In an interview before the United States Grand Prix, Alonso expressed his displeasure with private team conversations being broadcasted, often out of context and leading to misinterpretations by viewers.

He emphasized that the strategy discussions held with engineers are vital for the race but are reduced to one-sentence snippets that are impossible to comprehend fully at home.

Alonso believes that when team radio becomes the focus of the race broadcast, it indicates a lack of entertainment and a need for improvement within the sport as a whole.
