Former Formula 1 world champion Fernando Alonso has responded to accusations by his former teammate and former British world champion Lewis Hamilton, stating: “His problems are not my problem.” And he explained his driving conditions in this way, because in addition to taking care of the tires so that they do not wear out quickly, he said that after the penalty for his teammate Esteban Okon, he began to work on building a time difference to allow him to return, and that during this Hamilton could not go faster or did not go. He didn’t want to push harder.

Hamilton accused Alonso after the Monaco F1 race of deliberately delaying his car and keeping everyone behind him from competing for the lead. Alonso was pleased with seventh place and Hamilton eighth. Hamilton said that the Spaniard made too much of a gap in front of the cars in front, and it was not possible to overtake him due to the nature of the narrow track, which has many turns.
