Fernando Alonso had little reason to celebrate at the end of Friday afternoon in Miami. Second to last in the first free practice to save his tyres, and eighth in the sprint classification for Saturday’s race, the Asturian driver was also very upset by the FIA’s decision to reject Aston Martin’s appeal against the sanctions he received at the last Chinese race. Grand Prix for contact with Sainz in the sprint, which deprived him of his super license 3 points.
“It was difficult to evaluate the grip on the track and in the end to switch from a medium tire to a soft one, but it is equally difficult for everyone. I think we put both cars in SQ3, which was the goal, and we’ll see what happens.” I can learn to race,” Alonso said. He was referring to Sunday’s race. “Sprinting is useless. There are very few points at stake and they don’t allow us to compete because they punish us for everything we do.
From the outside it will be a boring day, we will be in the train carriage, but we will collect useful information from outside,” the Asturian added in a critical tone.
“We didn’t do long runs in training and sprinting doesn’t mean anything. Especially since we can’t fight or anything like that. “It’s not very interesting,” he concluded.
For his part, his partner Lance Stroll surpassed him to take seventh place on the grid. Regarding the sprint test, he believes that “it was a good qualifying for Aston Martin and for me, of course. Let’s hope that by saving a set of tires we can do something good for tomorrow’s race.”
