'request.get works fine locally, but fails in google colab & cloud

I'm trying to run the following simple code:

import requests 

url = r'https://fastlane.co.il/'
r = requests.get(url)
print("Status code:", r.status_code)

It runs good and fast on my local machine, but when i run it in Colab or in google cloud is simply timesout. How can i fix it?
