You couldn’t race, that’s what the drivers say, but neither should any points be distributed for a two-lap race behind the safety car. So said a visibly annoyed Fernando Alonso after getting out of the car, when the definitive suspension of the Belgian GP was confirmed. “Too bad. It was always red flag conditions, there was no visibility. The surprising thing is that they score points in two laps behind the safety car. Many, like me, did not have the opportunity to score. They decided to give them equally without a career. “
“Why do we do two laps and they distribute points? We did not run, we did not have the opportunity to score points. I could not add, it draws attention. You could not race, we saw it, it was all behind the safety car, how do you distribute points For a non-race? “, said the Asturian, eleventh on the grid and without the possibility of aspiring to anything else this Sunday. “They did the three laps to score points, because the conditions were the same. A strange sight. The conditions were never good enough to race ”.
“It’s tough, the viewers were amazing all weekend. It is good that they return to the circuits after the pandemic, they did not deserve this time and it is not anyone’s fault, but we could not do laps, “the Alpine driver settled.
