“The radio, anyw🌄ay, when you talk, you talk to y🎐our engineer and to your team.

“It’s a shame that sometimes everything is broadcasted, because if it’s br🐟oadcasted, this is what you say now [in the moment], this [right now] is how you behave in the media.

“When y🌠ou’re talking on the radio it’s only a comment to your team, normally.”

Alonso then elaborated on his radio message.

“I was frustrated therꦫe, for sure,” he added. “Every time we started in the first couple of rows of the 🧸grid there is something going on, unfortunately, and I felt that way.

“But, you know, it was a normal incident, and unfortunately Lewis had 🦄to retire the car after the incident.

“So, that was probably the ꦑworst par𒉰t of it.”
