During the final stage in Miami, Fernando Alonso made several critical comments to the stewards – they received them both for the fine imposed on him in China and for not punishing Lewis Hamilton, who Fernando blamed for the collapse in the first corner at the start of the sprint.
Fernando even discussed his dissatisfaction with FIA president Mohammed bin Sulayem, and at Imola the Aston Martin driver continued to make critical comments about the stewards.
“I think we will discuss this topic continuously,” Racingnew365 quotes Fernando. – The question remains open, of course. Discussions are currently taking place between the drivers, the FIA and the stewards about future rules and the future of racing. That is why I continue to maintain that, in my opinion, fines are imposed inconsistently.
Yes, this inconsistency will always exist, because when analyzing this or that incident there is always another side with its own point of view. That’s just how sports work. In recent years alone we have seen a number of cases where both sides of an incident thought the same thing and the stewards thought something completely different, and that is strange to Formula 1. It is something we need to work on.
Racers always try to fight as hard as possible without making contact with another car. We know how fragile our technology is, and the slightest damage immediately makes us much slower. The last thing we want is to bump into someone. Every time we try to develop and learn from our mistakes.
I recently read an article in which Sergio Perez and Logan Sargent said that in their opinion the stewards’ decisions were strange. Apparently I’m not the only one who thinks this way.”
