"I am confident in our ability to return to fight for the podium"

Fernando Alonso is confident in returning to fight for the podium at the Italian Grand Prix, although he acknowledged that the team is in a "delicate moment" after the latest results.

"There is no point denying the fact this is a tricky moment of the season for us. In Monza, if we do not pick up a significant number of points and our competitors get the maximum and pull away in the lead, then the situation in the classification would become very difficult. I’m not saying it would be impossible to reach our target, because that kind of talk does not exist in Formula 1, but we are aware of the situation and we are ready to react to any eventuality", Fernando said on his blog.

Alonso predicted a race "very different" by the Italian circuit characteristics: "from a technical point of view, Monza is a very different race to all the others: its long straightsrequire a very low level of downforce and, as a consequence,unique aerodynamic elements".

Fernando has not forgotten to remember that the event in Maranello will be special. "It is Ferrari’s home race and even if ours is a team that tackles every Grand Prix in the same way, giving it our best shot, always trying to win, there is no doubt that everyone in Maranello really wants to do well in front of our fans".
