Alonso sidelined again from media day in Brazil

For the second race in succession, Fernando Alonso has been forced to prioritize his health over his F1 media duties.

The Aston Martin driver will miss Thursday’s media day at Interlagos ahead of this weekend Sao Paulo Grand Prix as he takes additional time to recover from an ongoing intestinal infection.

The issue first surfaced ahead of last weekend’s race in Mexico City, where Alonso skipped Thursday’s engagements but reported for duty on Friday for the remainder of the event’s schedule.
