I missed what's going on: why did Alonso take this action?

Alonso has complaints that Brit Drivers are given preferential treatment compared to drivers of other nationalities by the FIA . He was punished twice (Australia and China) and harshly for being a spaniard while Hamilton gets away with no penalty for the incident he caused in sprint.
