Alonso could only finish in fourth position on the opening series of Formula One in 2011 in Australia, two weeks ago. Then, in the second series qualifying at Sepang, Malaysia, Saturday (04/09/2011), the Spanish rider is in fifth place and left with a time of almost one second from pole position winner, Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull Racing team.
This fact makes Alonso could only surrender. Former world champion 2005 and 2006 were admitted, there was nothing that could be covered that at this time Ferrari has not been too fast to be able to compete with Red Bull and McLaren, the master grid 1-2 (the qualification, Vettel's pole position, followed by Lewis Hamilton, Mark Webber , and Jenson Button).
"Tires that used the same for all riders, so I'm not sure the tires became an issue," said Alonso. "The car is not too fast."
"On this day, 90 percent of aerodynamic performance, so I think there is one area that we need better analysis. Usually each repair you do on the car, again, 90 percent of the time is updated aerodynamics. So, there is something in which they do it better than our current work. "
"Unfortunately, we were not fast enough in Australia, is also not fast enough here to fight for pole. So, I think the race would be difficult. We'll see. At the moment we only have to score many points."
Nonetheless, Alonso was not too worried when touched on the chance to become world champion. The reason is, there are many races who have acted so that they have a long enough time to clean up.
"Last year we had difficulty in many series, such as in Turkey when I was thrown in Q3 and then next week I was fighting for pole position in Monaco. We have to really concentrate."
"Yes, we have to change. We must make improvements in several series in the future because we are not too fast at the moment. But also, we must remain calm, very focused because the competition is very long."
