It's harder to make a case against Alonso because all he did was overtake a slow-moving car.
Now what's that nickname that everyone uses for Alonso?  |
Don't agree.
The team gave an order against the regulations to penalise a driver (Massa)and benefit another driver (Alonso).
From the conversations its ludicrous to suggest Alonso is an innocent party in all this.
