Formula 1 won’t be back in action for another month and a half or so, but fans are in mid-season form buzzing about Aston Martin driver Fernando Alonso‘s neck after he posted a wild photo of himself to X.
Now, as you may or may not know, F1 drivers are known for their thick, tree trunk-like necks. The reason? Well, your head weighs quite a bit, and so does the helmet that sits on top of it, and then when you throw in the G-forces that drivers pull during a race, it’s a lot for one’s neck to keep up with.
