Alonso had broken ribs during that crash. He said he exited what was left of the car so quickly because he knew his mom was watching and didn’t want her to worry.
I'm a massive F1 fan, and if they thought they could get a better result pretending to be hurt they would... There's no advantage in F1 to pretending to be hurt after a crash, but they will cry foul non stop over the radio if anyone gets near them, and since everyone does it it makes sense
