Fernando Alonso Track Quotations

I have a special feeling for this circuit. It is a fantastic track and it has always been good to me.

Everyone wants to beat Michael on the track because it is the same as beating (Lance) Armstrong in the Tour de France,

I waited for an opportunity and it didn't come. We were still the quickest on the track today, so it looks good for the championship.

The car feels like it did in winter testing. It is comfortable to drive and consistent, so I am quite happy with our situation. It was a special moment to go out on the track with the No. 1 on the car.

The conditions were not perfect, quite windy and the track was a little bit dirty. We all have our fingers crossed to avoid a wet track, but if it rains it will be the first time we are all in the wet in 2006 and we'll see how the cars behave.
