It seems the McLaren went into the inside wall on the run between Turns 3 and 4.

11:50 The circuit's official feed reports that Alonso has crashed the McLaren. He's done so at a point out of camera sight.

If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Apparently Alonso felt dizzy according to Cristobal Rosaleny, that was what I though first.

F/W + right rear damaged?

(it looks like a guy is standing where the right rear wheel should be on the back of the truck)

Sounds like some kind of seizure, maybe that was the reason for the crash. Lets wait and see. [-o<

Irvine:"If you don't have a good car you can't win it, unless you are Michael or Senna. Lots of guys won in Adrian Newey's cars, big deal. Adrian is the real genius out there, there is Senna, there is Michael and there is Newey.They were the three great talents."

While reading in some F1 group in facebook, apparently there was no crash. He pulled aside and complained of feeling ill hence the release of the medical car. Hope all is well with Fernando. Not sure if this is true.
