Fernando Alonso had a tough way of welcoming Liam Lawson back to F1 in Texas this weekend. The Aston Martin man was involved in an on-track battle with the new RB (formerly AlphaTauri) driver during the sprint, and going by his reaction, he was far from happy with the Kiwi.
Alonso started his race from P14 after qualifying in that position on Friday. He started ahead of Lawson, who was down in P15. As the lights went out and the race began, Alonso found himself side-by-side with Lawson.
Both Alonso and Lawson tried to outsmart each other and hunt for the driver ahead. In trying to do so, the two drivers were agonizingly close to each other and were inches away from making contact.
