Why were both alfa romeos struggling so hard? What caused the accident, was it simply an over reaction by zhou, or something mechanical?

From a purely observational standpoint, Zhou had a terrible start off the line. He was getting passed from those behind him; I think he was still accelerating / maneuvering to get position when the pack was braking for the turn.

Exactly! And then he hit RIC, who in turn hit OCO, who hit GASโ€ฆ poor alpine

The commentators on f1tv were saying that Zhou triggered an anti-stall causing his slow start.

Ty! Makes sense

Zhou was a clutch thing that was probably human error. Released too quickly, anti-stall kicked in, had to engage again, and everyone passed him. He the. Clipped Ricciardo, destroyed Gaslyโ€™s car and Oconโ€™s spine.

Bottas, who knows.

It looked like he just lapsed and missed the lights. It was oddly out of character. Iโ€™m assuming weโ€™ll see more analysis in the next couple days
