Alonso: 'We would be among the first if...'

Fernando Alonso (Ferrari), after his initial victory in Bahrain, had a frustrating start to the season. Despite a F10 well born, Ferrari gradually slipped in the hierarchy, Red Bull et McLaren taking the advantage throughout the races. If he can, mathematically, still claim the world title, the Spanish driver is not in the best position. Fernando Alonso confirms that this month of July will be decisive but that the Silverstone race is not yet the turning point of the season.

« This weekend is a normal Grand Prix for us. There are still many Grand Prix left », Explains the double World Champion. “ In July alone, we have three races. The points taken in July will be very important. We must do something good in the total of three races. »

Without turning a blind eye to the Scuderia's balance sheet, Fernando Alonso is reassured by the possibilities displayed by the F10. And regrets the progress of certain Grands Prix. “ If we look at the results of the last races, things may seem average to us. But if you really look at what happened, with a little more luck, we could have had 23 points more. If we had these points, currently, would we be among the first? » The Spaniard is thinking in particular of the European Grand Prix, during which the release of the safety car ruined Ferrari's race, while a podium was in sight.
