Fernando Alonso's return to Formula One was cut short after a discarded sandwich bag caused his car to overheat during Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix. And it later emerged why the 39-year-old double world champion, returning to the track with the Renault-backed team after two years away, was forced off. The 2005 and 2006 world champion with Renault ran as high as seventh during the early stages of the race at Sakhir before the problems ruined his night. And then unfortunately we had to retire the car with a brake issue – apparently there is some debris on the rear brake duct. The next race is the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola on April 18.
