Alonso's test crash. How does it work?
http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/12536/…
What caused the crash?
McLaren : 'His car ran wide at the entry to Turn Three – which is a fast uphill right-hander – allowing it to run onto the Astroturf that lines the outside of the track. A consequent loss of traction caused a degree of instability, spitting it back towards the inside of the circuit, where it regained traction and struck the wall side-on. Our findings indicate that the accident was caused by the unpredictably gusty winds at that part of the circuit at that time.'
Alonso : "We had a steering problem in the middle of Turn Three that locked into the right."
Could a gust wind really have been the cause?
Ron Dennis : "There was a fan stood on the corner with his son who has communicated with us in the last few days to say it was extremely gusty in that corner. In all his previous runs Fernando was saying it's tricky because the wind is moving the car around. Our conclusions that it was related more to wind was based on his comments and the comments of a third party."
Fernando Alonso : "Definitely not. I don't know if you've seen the video, but even a hurricane will not move the car at that speed. Also if you have any problem or any medical issue normally you will lose the power and go straight to the outside, never to the inside."
It smells like bullshit. I doubt we'll ever know the reason it happened.
