Gasly's car didn't do an Alpine. It just got Strolled.

Was the contact that bad? I know they touched but it didn't look forceful enough to break Gaslys suspension. I'll look at it again.

It looked like it to me. The clip starts here on the race highlights. Once Stroll returns to within track limits, it looks like direct wheel to wheel with harder contact on the rear right, which seems to have been what caused the suspension to break. at ~6:43 they show the onboard from Gasly's view and it was hard enough to jolt him, and only after Stroll made contact did the Alpine begin to crab.

EDIT: Fixing grammar/caps.

I think you might be right, I'll edit the post.
