Alonso to miss media day in Sao Paulo after receiving medical treatment

Formula 1

Aston Martin have confirmed that Fernando Alonso will miss his media day activities ahead of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, with his arrival delayed after receiving further medical treatment for an intestinal infection that he had suffered with prior to racing in Mexico.

Alonso was absent from Thursday’s media activities one week ago prior to the Mexico City Grand Prix, which the team announced at the time was due to him feeling unwell. He then returned to action on Friday in time for second practice, having already been due to sit out FP1 to allow Felipe Drugovich to take over.
