So pit lane start for both? If they changed floor spec. Or maybe that tweet is wrong and they already had same floor spec in qualy?

Fernando Alonso: "The truth is that I was coming for Pole. So it hurts"

"When you have an opportunity like today, you try to do as much as possible. I was eight tenths better than in Q2".
And instead, we are probably out of the race. Best case, starting dead last.
Of course. That's the difference between a world champion and a mediocre driver. Having that mentality and taking risks when it's meant to be is a must for any top class driver.

The others, the not-so-good drivers think like you. And that's why aren't able to understand that mistakes may happen when you strongly want the glory. That said, when the risks end up in a good result, just a few are aware that it could have ended up very bad. Yeah... This time it resulted very bad. And while you criticize having taken the risk... I can't applaud it more. For me it's been very well done, and that's just what I expect from ALO, and what has made him an F1 legend.

any spec change requires pit lane start.

Hitch just said all the cars but 1 made it back to the grid....although living timing is showing 2 cars in pit lane (Sainz and Albon).

Alonso is on the grid, so that tweet must be wrong and same spec as qualy.

We'll know soon if there's something wrong with the car anyways.

I'm not sure why, they probably changed a ton of parts.... but fingers crossed.

Sky interviewed McCullogh on the grid, and he said something was loose but would be tightened before the start, when lots of mechanics were working on Alonso's car in the grid box.

And Lance off the track on formation lap... Got it running again and beached it in the gravel. Jesus Christ...
