Symonds sees advantage in psychological strenght of Alonso
ING Renault F1 Team's Pat Symonds believes that the rivalry between McLaren team mates Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso is normal as they are both competitive people. Symonds, who used to work with Alonso, believes that the psychological strength of the Spaniard may play in his advantage in the battle for the Championship, although he has been impressed by the performance of Hamilton.
Pat Symonds "I think it is natural and normal, the way it should be. They are competitive people, and they are both burning to win. I have been immensely impressed with Lewis, but we may have seen a little chink in his armour after Spa. As for Fernando, we know how strong he is psychologically. I am looking forward to seeing how their battle unfolds over the final races."
