Alonso was just out of bounds for the starting position. It wasn't much, but it was still an unfair advantage he was seeking. As far as I recall he was half a car's length outside of the box.

The penalty has to fit the crime. Alonso was just out of bounds for the starting position. It wasn't much, but it was still an unfair advantage he was seeking .
