Alonso should know by now that you're only allowed to drive according to strict FIA guidelines. There's no "racing" in F1, only passing cars that behave predictably at all times on the approved DRS straits.

This sounds like some great racing! I'm hoping that next they think of putting in a new lane all the way around the track, this can be the 'passing' lane. All the slow drivers should stay out of it.

Either that or one car on top of another in the gravel, you know- consistency.
