Speaking ahead of this weekend’s Turkish GP, Alonso said he did it to “see the questions here in Istanbul.” And to prove that the reaction to such moves very depending on which drivers are involved.
Just to see the questions here in Istanbul, Alonso said in the pre-race press conference. “Just to confirm when I do things they have a different behaviour and a different repercussion on the following event. So now, maybe they change the run-off area in Lap 1 in the first couple of corners.
“I’ve been the idiot on track for most of the championship while I’ve been overtaken from outside of the asphalt for many people in the first couple of races and even in Austria, I remember Austria 1 and Austria 2 and nothing happened, and there were no questions in the following races and now after Sochi, there’s a question. It’s a confirmation.”
