Fernando Alonso is happy with it

Fernando Alonso was not unhappy in the paddock at the end of the qualifying session, even if he was not jumping for joy. The native of Oviedo, by being third in qualifying, was already happy to inherit the right side of the track for the start of the race. Moreover, the Red Bull RB6 seemed unattainable to him.

« I did the best I could, Alonso told us. I was at my maximum, it was impossible to take the Red Bull again. But, looking at the timesheet, we see that the gap is not that significant. I now hope that the race will be calm and without rain. » According to local estimates, there could be a rainy spell in Melbourne at the end of the race.

If Fernando Alonso is hungry for victories, he has adopted a cautious approach in the Melbourne paddock. “ Our objective is to reach the finish, not make any mistakes and obtain a good result. Of course, I will fight for victory but we must not take unnecessary risks because it is important to collect points. »
