    Alonso's Blog : A weekend to get everything right



    I arrived in Abu Dhabi yesterday evening, straight from Sao Paulo in Brazil. It was a long flight but I still managed to rest. Then I made a quick trip to the circuit where I met the team and fitted in a lap of the track on a bicycle.

    Our approach hasn’t changed for this all-important race: we know that if we get everything perfectly right, then we will have the chance to reach the target that we set ourselves at the beginning of the season.

    The Interlagos result allows us to be in charge of our own destiny: with a win or a second place we won’t need any more calculations. We can do it, even if we know our principal opponents are very strong: so far, perhaps apart from one race, theirs has been the best car on every type of circuit. That still doesn’t mean we expect to be beaten – anything but.

    This evening, after taking part in an event organised by our partner Shell, I visited Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, the theme park dedicated to Maranello that towers next to the circuit. The structure already dominated the view last year but to see it finished offers another impression altogether. Inside you can really live the emotion of a day inside the Ferrari world, from the speed of Formula 1 to the style and technology of the road cars.

    From tomorrow we will concentrate totally on preparation for this race. We are at the final round of a season that will remain wonderful whatever happens. We aim to complete it in the best way – and rest assured we’ll be giving everything to achieve it!

    And we are all completely with you, Fernando. Wish you and the whole team a monstrously happy day on Sunday.

    Even the King supports Alonso

    Turun Sanomat 11.11 2010

    The tensions in F1-top are at their highest when the drivers' championship is for the first time settled in the Middle East desert. On Wednesday evening the air was most relaxing - 28 degrees in the velvet night.

    At least the Abu Dhabi GP-machinery is okay. Like last year Yas Marina stands for Sunday are sold out.

    There are big shots coming to the place to support their own. World championship leader Fernando Alonso will get the support of the King of Spain himself, Juan Carlos. The King has earlier also been in races and usually brought good luck to Alonso.

    Since Tuesday Juan Carlos has been on a private trip in the Persian Gulf and he will be the guest of Sabah Al Ahmad Al Sabah in Kuwait until Sunday.

    Red Bull tycoon Dietrich Mateschitz again flew in with a private plane and after he is done with doing business elsewhere he will go to Abu Dhabi on Sunday to witness a possible historic victory.

    Luca di Montezemolo again already started drumming in Italy about his team's strenght because Ferrari has without two exceptions - 2005 and 2009 - always been in the last GP race fighting for the WDC.

    In fact Ferrari has come out as champion only once of the three last times - 2006, 2007 and 2008.

    All of my predictions have come true so far this season, and the one prediction I have left - that Alonso will be the world champion - is the one I'm most certain about. I can feel in my bones.

    Alonso does not look too happy, but Massa seems to be loving it! (see pic nº 3)
