http://www.wheels24.co.za/FormulaOne/Alonso-Massa-best-team-mate-20110907 I wonder what he thinks about Hamilton...
how are ferrari not seeing that massa is nowhere near good enough. if the team manage to get a championship winning car by next year then how they gonna challenge for the constructors when massa is trudging down in 5th every race he is so off the pace
If: - Alonso was getting preferential treatment and Massa is better he would be hugging closely behind to Alonso in race positions. - Massa was a top driver he wouldnt be so far behind Alonso Massas performance shows on Ferrari's points tally not just his own. This statement reminds me alot of Hamilton before Kovalainen got the boot
He is no threat to Alonso, so Alonso is comfrotable with him. The only think Alonso cannot do is complain that he receives no help from his team-mate should he ever need him in a WDC battle. For Ferrari's sake, they need two top-drawer drivers if they ever want to win either the WDC and/or WCC. Unfortuntely for Massa, he just isn;t the same since his accident.
Ferrari see the Constructors' Championship as a consolation prize. Their main purpose is to finish a season with the Drivers' Champion; it doesn't really matter about to the other guy, so long as he helped…
An alternate view... Maybe he's attempting to give Massa a much needed show of support. It's not impossible.
