F1: Alonso sets the Malaysian GP

E 'in Australia was not to lose the habit of Fernando Alonso time zone, and to prepare for the hot temperatures that will at Sepang. "I did sports - explains the champion of Oviedo - because the training is fundamental in this race plenty of fluids are lost and it is very difficult to drive in these conditions and must be in top physical shape to face the right way this weekend.

Be prepared 100% from this point of view can make a difference on Sunday afternoon. " Despite the distance from the team, Ferrari has the talent of each step in the evolution of his car and found the time to analyze data on the race in Melbourne. "I was in contact with the technicians via e-mail and by phone - Alonso continues - we reviewed the performance of the weekend in Melbourne and we talked about preparing to Sepang.

We'll have a little something back in the car but nothing particularly significant or that there may be to say that this or that change are the key to make a leap in performance. " In short, Alonso is optimistic and takes the hand as the team last season, he is the real captain at Ferrari, the one that puts us in the face and the track is well made, and it is he who continues to believe strongly in the power of his car.

"I am convinced that we must remain focused on our work and try to figure out how to bring out the full potential of the 150th Italy, which I am sure, is all. Before you do this, it is useless to stay here to make predictions about how the weekend goes. We must deal with it day after day.

" Words that do not look for excuses, but expressing a sound understanding. All that remains is to await the start of practice to begin to paint a picture of the situation in Malaysia for Ferrari. Meanwhile, Alonso before returning to prepare for the GP browse the scrapbook and go back in time, when in Sepang began its golden age.

"The best memory of the Sepang circuit is connected to the first pole position of my career, won here 22 March 2003. Neither I nor the team, Renault, we expected that Saturday morning, a similar result but at the end of qualifications , we found ourselves in two cars in the front row. Every time I come here I think back to that weekend, to the joy of the pole and the trepidation that preceded the race.

He did not win, as it happened then in 2005 and 2007, but still came to third place and was then able to get on the podium for the first time. Definitely a weekend to remember for a long time. "
