Fernando Alonso warns about lack of consistency – Formula 1 news
Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso has warned that lack of consistency in 2012 Formula 1 season so far can impair the credibility of the sport as there have been six different winners in the first six races.
Alonso said that the fans may find the unpredictability of the season interesting however there are huge chances that the reliability of the game may get affected as it seems that anyone can take victory in the races ahead.
“It's a fantastic season, it's so unpredictable,” he told CNN. “It's good for the audience, it's good for the sport to bring attention to the races. On the other hand we can lose credibility. We cannot lose that the best teams, the best drivers, the best
strategies win the races, because at the moment from the outside it seems that in every race anyone can win.”
