I replied to the FIA with honesty and professionalism - Alonso

Double World Champion, Fernando Alonso, told the Italian newspaper 'Gazzetta dello Sport' that he didn't supply the FIA with information in the espionage case to damage the team as it would also damage himself.

Alonso was quoted by Gazzetta dello Sport: "I did not accuse the team, I just replied to the FIA with honesty and professionalism. It's stupid to think that I might have replied to the FIA in order to damage the team, as I would do nothing but damaging myself. You must not forget I'm fighting for the championship.

"The FIA sent that letter to all the drivers, asking if we had anything on this matter. It was our duty to reply, by sending what we had. There was no other choice. I hope everyone understands that."
