Fernando Alonso wants to do better

Fernando Alonso, in front of his audience, finished second, behind Mark Webber (Red Bull), untouchable this Sunday. After starting from the second row, the native of Oviedo is delighted with this performance. “ I am extremely happy, it?s a great result, declares the pilot Ferrari. When you gain two positions in the last part of the race, you can only feel good. To finish second is great. »

But it would be a poor understanding of Fernando Alonso to imagine that this second place is completely satisfying. The Spaniard knows that Ferrari is not yet at the top and that the F10 can still gain performance. “ Generally speaking, the weekend was so-so. Fourth in qualifying is good, but it's not what I'm hoping for. Second at the end of the race is good too, but we need to improve. We know the areas in which we need to improve. »

However, the Spaniard appears reassured at the end of this Grand Prix. After other more difficult races, the Asturian driver is still satisfied with this result. In addition, he affirms that the Scuderia knows the procedure to follow to return to the top of the podium. “ We learned a lot this weekend. We strive to maximize our potential. One day we will be first, it's obligatory. The main thing is to give 100% every weekend. And, today, I am satisfied with our overall performance. »
