Not at all,” Alonso replied Hungary, as he is addressed to the discussions in the week after Hockenheim. “There are a Grand Prix to talk always something, not only in Germany. In every race there is an anecdote. One is the Red-Bull-collision in Turkey, at other times I’ve Massa overhauled at the pit entrance. We which can not devote too much attention. ”

“If we lose only one percent of our focus, we have lost,” the Spaniard continued. “There are many opinions and it was in the past few days a lot of talk. For us it is only important that the car is competitive and we deliver that in Hungary a good job. Everyone has their opinion, the drivers and team bosses, but it is their opinion, we can respect. We wish to concentrate on our work. ”

About the team tactics in Hockenheim Alonso can elicit any details. “I do not think that there is a number one or number two in the drivers there.

It means a lot,” says the double world champion team-mate Felipe Massa, it’s clear who said in Hungary that he was not number two.

Many fans at Hockenheim and in front of TV sets felt cheated after the race. “Of course, some fans are unhappy about some race, not only in Germany. There were other races.

Maybe I see some other fans, but so far these were the only ones.”

Therefore, the Hockenheim winner is also certain that his reputation has not suffered from the incidents. “I do not think anything has changed for me, or something will happen to me. I am the same and would always fight for the best things for the team and for the sport. I hope I do it in my career, always good .

Yet it is not clear when the motor sport World Council deals with the Hockenheim-events. Alonso cares not: “We’ll see. Need Now the pilots to concentrate on driving. It is a very interesting race. We have to deliver in Hungary good opportunities in a strong performance. It’s not in our hands what the World Council in future will decide. ”

After Alonso has referred to this subject, he comes finally to evaluate the strong performance of the car. “We can be pleased with the competitiveness of the F10 in the last race. At last we have in Germany celebrated a double victory. There were no problems and we collected many points.”

“But at Silverstone and Valencia, the car was good. We want to implement this momentum in Hungary. All these discussions are in the past and there is nothing to add. We have already said everything in Germany.”
