Alonso hopes for a perfect weekend

Fernando Alonso, double world champion Formula 1, is not in the habit of giving up. But, realistically, the Spanish driver, who did no better than sixth place in front of his home crowd in Valencia, knows that his chances of shining at the end of the season are slim. In any case, he does not see the scenario of 2008 repeating this year, when Alonso won two races at the end of the year. “ Last year, it was already difficult to say what to expect for the last races, confided Fernando Alonso at Spa, on the sidelines of the Belgian Grand Prix. This year, it?s also difficult to imagine how it could go for us and the other teams. Last year, maybe we had more opportunities because the car was better from race to race. This year, that is not the case. »

Despite everything, the Spanish champion hopes to take advantage of the potential of his R29. Convinced of having a good car, Fernando Alonso thinks that, if luck favors him, the end of the season could be good. “ In the last three races we could see that we were competitive. If we have a bit of luck and we know how to take advantage of our possibilities, then we can aim for the podium. We have not been able to do it until now. We need perfect weekends »
