FORMULA 1 fans were left in hysterics after Fernando Alonso’s hilarious reaction to overtaking Carlos Sainz. It left the Spaniard right behind the other Ferrari, Carlos Sainz, as he eyed a podium spot. And just a few minutes later, after nearly touching Sainz earlier in the lap, Alonso passed his fellow countryman to move into third place. Following the overtake, he could be heard on the Aston Martin team radio saying: “Bye bye”. Alonso thoroughly enjoyed his afternoon in Bahrain as his new team showed they are set to be the surprise package of the 2023 season. And Alonso rounded off the podium ahead of Sainz, Lewis Hamilton and fellow Aston Martin man Lance Stroll.
