Trick and Flaw

Most Formula 1 fans, even the tifosi, thought less of Michael and sorry for his teammates under Ferrari’s team orders during Michael’s reign. Try to explain Michael and Rubens 2002 to any sports fan, it can’t be done. Team sport or not, if the leader pulls over to allow his team mate to pass, at least one of them is not racing. I believe Alonso is as good a racer as Michael and expect that Alonso is a better man. I, also, hope Alonso wouldn’t want to tie the hands of any of his competition, teammate or otherwise, behind their back.

“McLaren has always insisted its drivers enjoy an equal footing at its team, Jordan reckons Alonso has missed a trick by not demanding undisputed number one status. Alonso’s flaw is he’s a double world champion but omitted a clause saying he was the No 1. He clearly felt Hamilton was not up to it. However while joining in with the praise of F1’s newest sensation; Jordan believes Alonso will still win a third straight world crown.” - Eddie Jordan from ITV.com
One of the many things I like about McLaren.
One of the many things I like about Alonso.
I don’t think anyone, including Ron Dennis and Lewis Hamilton, thought Hamilton was “up to,” this kind of start.

EJ, won't Alonso winning his third straight world title, as you believe, be that much sweeter without stacking the deck Schumi style.
