Marca has a bunch of pictures of Alonso's incident here http://www.marca.com/albumes/2015/02/22/el_accidente_de_alonso_en_montmelo_2015/index.html so weird, the marshall gets there, sets down his fire extinguisher, talks to him, more marshalls arrive and he's still inside the car, even though it doesn't look like it was a bad crash. Ron Dennis wants to kill Alonso is the only possible explanation here.

If the G-Thang meter is tripped then the marshals have to wait for the medical staff to extract the driver if there's no immediate risk of fire.

You can't even get your lame jokes right. The watch is called G-Shock. Which would have even opened you up for an electrocution joke. The g force things are just stickers you attach to things and they break when subjected to the rated g-force.

The amazing new McLaren can both concuss you, and give you painful electric shocks. What a car. Ron is back.

G-shock watches are actually pretty good (if questionably sytled) watches. They have the kind of reliability that Ron Dennis could only dream of.
