Going through a transitional period: Alonso

Barcelona: Spanish F1 driver Fernando Alonso, who is yet to pick up points this season, has accepted that he is going through “a transitional period” but is convinced his McLaren car will be competitive in the future to win races. Alonso failed to complete Sunday’s Spanish Grand Prix race due to a brake problem, reports Efe. The two-time Formula One world champion also believes it would be “unfair” to be “sad” about his poor form. “It would be so unfair to be sad or not happy. I am a F1 driver, I have two world championships, I am the driver with the most points in the history of F1, and I have the best family in the world,” he said However, the Spaniard has accepted that his car is not very competitive, “I’m sad because I’m in a transitional period that will last a certain period of time before I win again.” “To have a trophy in the cabinet at home is an ego problem or materialistic thing, something that I do not miss,” he added.
