Alonso: Pass on Vettel "not fair"

After damage sustained in his crash with Max Verstappen, Sebastian Vettel struggled to keep others behind him and with just two laps remaining, Fernando Alonso was able to pass the wounded Ferrari.

Fernando Alonso has conceded that his fight with Sebastian Vettel late on during the Chinese Grand Prix was not a fair one.

Alonso overtook the Ferrari man with just two laps remaining to take seventh position from the championship leader.

Despite not having the strongest weekend, Alonso was pleased that he was able to make the overtake despite the Ferrari not being at full strength.

“It was good. Obviously, it was not a fair fight because Sebastian had damage on his car and I was a little bit quicker on the corners,” the Spaniard said.
