Fernando Alonso has been speaking ahead of the new Formula One season
The McLaren driver is hoping to upset the odds this year by helping to break the Mercedes’ dominance of recent seasons.
Alonso had a solid two testing sessions and says he feels confident ahead of the curtain-raiser in Australia this weekend.
However, the Spaniard did reveal doubts about his side’s ability to challenge Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes at the front of the grid.
Alonso claims that he is happy with how McLaren have progressed the car but he is still unsure about whether he will be able to stop Hamilton from claiming his fifth Drivers’ Championship.
