Fernando Alonso is unhappy with the stewards' decision.
At the start of the Mexico Grand Prix several drivers cut the first corner and were not penalized for it. That decision by the stewards drew criticism from Fernando Alonso — the Aston Martin driver promised he would act similarly in the future.
Fernando Alonso: "I went into the first corner quite aggressively, and everything was going well, but then several cars on the straight cut the second and third corners, rejoining the track three or four cars ahead of me.
I have to say that's unfair. For the second race in a row things like this are happening at the first corner on the opening lap, and the FIA is looking the other way. Well, lesson learned.
You can't cut corners and gain two or three positions, because after that you're obliged to give them back. Of course the FIA has more information at its disposal, and they decided there was no need to return the positions. Next time in a similar situation I'll try to gain the advantage myself. I hope it will play into our hands."
