Seems like the 2x champ is coming up with excuses why his rookie team mate
did better than him this last Sunday.

What makes you think that this is not true?

There isn't any data supporting Alonso's claim. And as we all know

Out-performed him

It is possible for someone to be faster than Alonso, No? But by
reading some of the post here you would think that the great Alonso
can never be out-driven. Alonso will soon run out of excuses. I
predicted that Hamilton would be able to out qualify Alonso by the 8th
race. Hamilton did it within 3.

Fernando tends to get a little too honest when he speaks with the press, he
just says whatever is on his mind - remember the "I was all alone" story
from last year - and that gets blown out of proportions (as always in F1).
Anyway, while Lewis did a fantastic job and is obviously a great racer, it
is also obvious that something was amiss with Fernando's car. Maybe it was
just wrong setup (which is ultimately his own responsability), I just hope
they'll find out exactly what it was...

it as an excuse for being outperformed.

Again, where is the DATA? If a driver is slow because of a fault with
the car a team like McLaren will always find out why, and report
accordingly (they live for that stuff). I can't tell you the amount
of times that a car was mysteriously slow and was believed to be the
drivers fault, only to find out later (by the engineers) that there
was indeed a problem with the car. In this case the team isn't
backing up Alonso on this. Any Idea why? Until the team backs up
Alonso's statement, then all he is doing is running his mouth.

It seems strange to me, that the only person claiming that it was the
light-pod falling on the car that caused the car to be slower is
Alonso. The only information I need is what the team engineers
have to say (they've said nothing as of yet) and the results (Hamilton
was faster in every session/race). Prejudice or no prejudice my
observation is that Alonso was out driven at Bahrain. Look at the
results

Alonso at least had the light-pod to blame this time. What is he going
to blame it on the next time? Or is he going to out-drive Lewis
Hamilton for the rest of the races this year?

They dont have to. Their silence on this matter speaks volumes.


Personal choice is correct, but obviously that personal choice wasn't
the best choice. Alonso wasn't able to adapt as fast as Hamilton.
