      Fernando Alonso: "The car has weaknesses that we need to work on, but we are fighting in a tight group with other cars, and if we have a good weekend, we can score a lot of points.

      Right now it's all about the settings. In Melbourne, we continued to experiment and saw the difference in car behavior between the third practice session and qualifying. It was the same car, in the same configuration, but with some settings it was more competitive, with others it was less, now we need to analyze everything and draw the right conclusions.

      There is a stage ahead in China, it will be held in the format of a Saturday sprint, with a single training session in which you don't feel like experimenting, but the situation is the same for everyone. All the teams are now learning how to work with their machines, and we are no exception."
