F1 Twitter's best Hamilton Alonso crash memes
The internet enjoyed the first-lap collision and was quick to poke fun at both drivers
F1 Twitter reacted very quickly to Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso's collision at the Belgian Grand Prix, creating dozens of memes poking fun at both drivers.
The lap-one incident forced Hamilton to retire from the race, causing Alonso to call him an "idiot" over the radio.
Hamilton took full responsibility for the shunt, which saw him have no other choice but to stop his car due to damage suffered.
Formula 1 fans on Twitter immediately produced memes on the incident, with many creatively using footage of Hamilton's long, lonely walk back to the paddock to provide some light entertainment.
