In the aftermath of a challenging Miami GP Sprint race where overtaking was scarce and the Mercedes team faced various setbacks, Team Principal Toto Wolff has h

During the Miami Sprint Race this wekend, Fernando Alonso expressed strong dissatisfaction with Lewis Hamilton's driving, hinting at preferential treatment in penalty decisions from the stewards.

On lap 1, in the hectic scramble for position in Turn 1, Alonso accused Hamilton of losing control while making an aggressive move on the inside of the corner. The moment led to a collision that implicated not only Alonso and Hamilton but also Lando Norris and Lance Stroll, with the latter two retiring early due to damage. Though the stewards deployed the safety car, they later ruled the incident as a typical race-start accident, opting against further action.

"As I said, there is only to lose, nothing to gain. For us, it's more a free practice, so we wanted not to take any risk and just complete the race, both cars out in the first corner. This is the sprint race. It's completely meaningless and only good for damage, penalties, and no action," he expressed.
