Alonso:"Šumi najnesportskiji vozač"
Aktuelni šampion F1 Fernando Alonso izjavio je u ponedeljak za Radio „Marku“ da će sedmosrtuki šampion „najbržeg cirkusa“ Mihael Šumaher otići u istoriji kao najnekorektniji vozač u istoriji F1
Španac je ovom izjavom samo „dolio ulje“ pred dramatičan finiš sezone u koji ulazi sa samo dva poena prednosti u odnosu na odlazećeg Šumahera:
“Mihael je čovek sa najviše kazni i jedan od najnesportskijih vozača u istoriji F1. Zidan se časnije oprostio od njega“ rekao je Alonso.
25-godišnji Španac koji će naredne sezone voziti za MekLaren nalazi se pod ogromnim pritiskom, posebno posle odustajanja na trci u Monci kojoj je prethodila i kazna zbog blokiranja Felipea Mase.
Iako je Flavio Briatore upao u probleme izjavom „ da je FIA uručila titulu Šumaheru ovakvom kaznom“ Alonso smatra da je i dalje bliži tituli:
“Imam dva boda prednosti, istina je da su neke odluke donešene u korist nekoga a protiv nekih, ali šta da se radi“ rekao je Alonso i završio intervju kojim nas je uveo u spektakularnu završnicu sezone.

Alonso criticizes Schumacher in Spanish radio interview
Associated Press
Madrid — Fernando Alonso has criticized Formula One rival Michael Schumacher, saying that the German driver will retire from racing as the most unsporting driver in world championship history.
Alonso's harsh comments to Spanish radio station Marca on Monday night came one day after Schumacher won the Italian Grand Prix and announced that he will retire at the end of the season.
The German driver moved to within two points of Alonso in the championship standings.
"Michael is the man with the most sanctions and the most unsporting driver in the history of Formula One," Alonso said.
He also compared him to Zidane, the France soccer captain who retired after being sent off for a head-butt in July's World Cup final.
"Zidane retired with more glory than Schumacher, but I can still see that he has been the fastest driver for the last 10 years, and racing against him has been an honour," he said.
"That doesn't take away from the fact that he has been the best driver and it has been an honour and pleasure to battle against him. Everyone has their time and you have to respect his decision. Things will be more equal now."
Alonso also hinted that the championship had been fixed in favour of Schumacher.
On Sunday, he had his race stopped when his engine failed 10 laps from the end. Alonso was penalized five places on the starting grid for blocking Ferrari's Felipe Massa in qualifying Saturday and started 10th.
"No one is going to believe the penalty I was given for a long time to come," Alonso said. "The excuse they gave was far from honest. That the Italian newspapers headlined this as a robbery is not good for our sport. One thing I am clear about, though, is that he who laughs last, laughs longest."
