Race wins have Alonso’s confidence high. Should they?

Winning on two very different tracks at Monza and then Singapore has Ferrariโ€™s Fernando Alonso feeling good about his title chances, he says in his latest Ferrari diary.

Hereโ€™s Fernando:

"

The wins in Monza and Singapore inspire confidence, especially as they came after a difficult season, in which our championship chances have often hung by a thread. Winning on two very different types of track confirms that our car is very versatile and so we can tackle the coming races without any fear.

"

What do you make of the Ferrari at this point? Do you agree with him that he should feel good about the machine around him โ€” in particular compared to the Red Bulls?

Alonso also had this to add:

"

I have been asked which was the best win, Singapore or Monza. Well, any win is great, wherever it comes, but I would have to say that winning in Italy at the wheel of a Ferrari was a really special and unique feeling.

"

Itโ€™s refreshing to see a driver not say his last win was the best. +1 for Fernando.
