Fernando Alonso took aim at the FIA as he faced the media after having the 100th podium of his Formula 1 career stripped from him.
Alonso looked to have secured back-to-back third-placed finishes to start the new season with an excellent performance at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. He took to the podium as usual and was handed his trophy and champagne to celebrate.
But while all that was happening, the stewards were reviewing footage of his pit stop and deciding whether he had adequately served a five-second penalty during the race. In the end, they deemed that he hadn't and added an extra 10 seconds to his final race time.
