Fernando Tornello thanked everyone for the birthday wishes and said he spent the day working on what he enjoyed. He praised the Sepang circuit and Max's victory, as well as Antonelli's performance and the recovery of Hamilton and Leclerc. He also highlighted Fernando Alonso's points and that Franco Colapinto had gained eight positions. Tornello pointed out that Alpine had sent Colapinto out on the track with slick tires despite the wet ground, a gamble that, he said, backfired, although other teams had also tried it. He added that during the first safety car period, the race resumed before Franco and other drivers reached the back of the grid, leaving them about 25 seconds behind. He said that the FIA needed to review that procedure and recommended reading ANPeix's documented analysis on the restart. He also thanked those who followed them during the night on Disney+ Premium. #F1 #Sepang #Cumpleaños (translated)

Nachez reported that Fernando Alonso described it as a "miracle" that his team competed against faster cars and said that the handling of the engine had not been easy. He also explained that if he started in front and managed to open a gap, he could manage the tires in a clean race; but if he was overtaken at the beginning and could not regain positions due to a lack of top speed, he would wear out the tires and his race would be compromised. #F1 #FernandoAlonso #Carrera (translated)

Alpinito published statements from Franco Colapinto after the qualifying. The driver said that the team had tried to save some tires for the race the next day and that he had soft, medium, and hard ones to choose from. https://t.co/XXn75Yc4L7 #Fórmula1 #FrancoColapinto #Carrera (translated)

No fue la primera ni va a ser la última vez que un piloto se equivoque así. Ahora lamentablemente le toca a Franco ser el ojo de la tormenta.
