What a legendary quote this is from Alonso speaking about the cars being slower this year:
"There are less G forces, less speed into the corners, but there more parameters to control, there are more buttons on the steering wheel. It's more critical to drive and to control the car in the high-speed corners and in terms of traction. It's just different. In terms of emotions, it's the same. When I drive a go-kart I go 20secs or half a minute slower than in Formula 1 but I sweat and enjoy so much. If I drive my road car, I'll enjoy it too. As long as you're driving on the limit, the lap time doesn't change the emotions you feel when you drive. This car is still fun to drive and we'll discover better soon."
