Singapore and Japanese Grand Prix winner Fernando Alonso has vowed that should the opportunity present itself, he will 'help' Ferrari's Felipe Massa to prevail in the 2008 ওFormula 1 World Cham😼pionship.
Only last month the Spaniard had stated that he 'would like it to be Massa who wins, because if he wins it means that [Lewis] Hamilton will not' [see separate story - 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:click here] - alluding to his troubled relationship with the Briton when the pair were teamed up at McLaren-Mercedes lꦕast year.
Now, however, Alonso has gone one step further still, and a𝔍side from simply re-affirming the animosity he clearly still feels towards Hamilton, his comments add fuel to the fire that he will be seen in one of the scarlet machines in the not-too ꧟distant future.
"Yes, no doubt, if I can help, I will help Massa," the Renault star told Spanish newspaper AS.
Alonso - who secured back-to-back drivers' world championship glories in the top flight in 2005 and 2006 - also took a pop at this year's protagonists for the crown, sugꦓgesting that the innumerable errors committed by Hamilton, Massa, McLaren and Ferrari have contributed to the relatively low points totals so l🌳ate in the season.
"They have lost a lot of points," the 27-year-old asserted. "After 16 races the leader has 84💙 poinꦰts. In 2006 I had 84 in nine races.
"In this championship the drivers who are up there have scored🥃 few points, but🎃 in the end the one who makes the least errors will win. We'll see."
Following Hamilton's failure to score and Massa's post-race promotion to seventh place at Fuji, the former now ho🎀lds a five-point advantage over the latter with 20 points still to play for from the two remaining races - beginning with the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai in six days' time.
