Aston Martin Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso reckons Miami has proved “nationality matters” in F1 investigation outcomes – and will raise his concerns with FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem
Aston Martin Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso expressed his belief that nationality plays a role in F1 investigation outcomes, citing concerns regarding Lewis Hamilton’s incident during the Miami Grand Prix weekend. Alonso suggested he felt singled out after a collision with Hamilton during the sprint race. He voiced his intention to address these concerns with FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem. The stewards issued a verdict stating they could not identify a driver predominantly to blame for the collisions during the incident, influenced by F1’s leniency policy on first-lap incidents. Alonso maintained his stance that nationality may have influenced the outcome and remained determined to ensure fair treatment for all drivers, including future Spanish talents. Alonso was seen discussing the matter with Ben Sulayem and Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack, highlighting the ongoing nature of the controversy in F1.
