Formula 1 fans on Twitter were treated to an epic United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.

The race had drama from the first lap when George Russell crashed into Carlos Sainz, ending the Ferrari driver's day early, and also saw Fernando Alonso battle back from a crash of his own to finish in the points.

Alonso was involved in an incident with Lance Stroll, who was summoned to the stewards after the race.

His eventual pre-penalty seventh-place finish earned him huge praise from F1 fans on Twitter, who were in excellent form creating memes and taking shots at various drivers and teams throughout the race.

Here are some of the best F1 memes from the US GP:
