ALONSO: The weight of Formula 1 race cars is the reason they explode into TWO PARTS

The full impact of the increasingly difficult Formula 1 race cars was revealed by the horrific accident of Mick Schumacher, a Haas racer, at a race in Monaco.

So to me Fernando Alonso, which since its debut year 2001 notices that it is total weight of race cars Formula 1 increased by 600 on today's almost 800 kilograms.

"The accident we saw in Monaco was very serious. It was almost like in Jeddah, where Mick’s race car also shattered into two parts. The gearbox was separate from the chassis and this happened again in Monaco. Fortunately, he took it without consequences, but I hope that Formula 1 and the FIA ​​will draw the right conclusions," so Alonso.

The Spaniard is not surprised that Mick Schumacher's car in Monaco split into two parts, as today's car is too heavy in his opinion and he hopes to make the right decisions at the top of Formula 1.

40-year-old considers the fact that the race car is not held collisions, is not necessarily a sign design or speed deficiencies, but it is simply because they are today's race cars too heavy. "It seems to me that the race car didn’t blow up in two because there was something wrong with it. The problem is not the race cars, but their weight,”So the team racer Alpine. "They are very heavy, currently over 800 kilograms, so the endurance when hitting a firewall is much higher than before. Maybe this experience will teach us something," Ends Alonso.
