Fernando has track position, but of course they pit Stroll first. Shame on this team!

How the hell does the person behind have priority?

Alonso was told to box but decided to do another lap himself, losing around 10 seconds to stroll

Bad for Fernando then, just like Monaco 2023

Alonso had priority and they left him out, vibes monaco 2023. Always the same story, it means it's voluntary

Well, apparently, Fernando ignored the call from the pitane. In that case, it's fully on him. Just madness.

I was watching the onboard, engineer said "box, box", then Alonso said "maybe one more lap" and didnt box.

at least it was alonsos call, and not a team call to give lance priority. not a huge deal really in their current state. i guess it does hurt their chances to get past the haas. theres still quite a few laps left though

Engineer asked for thoughts on boxing this lap, Alonso said difficult to know. Was then told to box. Stroll staying out. Gained 4-5 seconds on Stroll by pitting a lap earlier.

It seems he has a hard time making decisions in those crossover moments. Some opportunities were lost due to this over the last years, Monaco was most of all the team's fault but it also happened because Alonso was indecisive, lets not forget

Still seeing the same drivers win for 10 years and Alonso since 2013 have never given him the chance to win. What a shame F1 is and how much frustration I have inside. Still people who think to finish fourth, fifth in the constructors' classification and it counts for absolutely nothing

Except the first stint Alonso's pace did not look really impressive. .
