Alonso will win the championship - Briatore
As Lewis Hamilton is leading the standings, everybody believes that the rookie will take his first Championship title, but Flavio Briatore is confident that Alonso can turn the tables and become World Champion for the third consecutive time.
The flamboyant Italian told the Spanish newspaper 'Diario As': "Like many drivers, he has had some difficulty adapting to a new team. He has gone from Michelin to Bridgestone, whereas Hamilton already knows the tyres from GP2.
"People exaggerate everything. I do not believe that Fernando has changed and I believe that he will win the championship. He has to be calm, to focus on himself, forget everyone else, and he will win it."
