Michael Schumacher remains “one step ahead” of Lewis Hamilton in terms of F1 greatness. As for Hamilton, Alonso said the Mercedes driver is clearly “very good and the best of his generation”. “But he did not win the world championship at McLaren when his teammate was Jenson Button. Nico Rosberg also won the world championship at Mercedes,” he said. The 39-year-old was also asked about Ferrari’s 2020 slump, comparing Sebastian Vettel’s failure to win a title for Maranello with his own. “If you sign with Ferrari, you assume that you can win the world championship,” said the two-time champion. Alonso thinks Racing Point-Aston Martin is a good move for quadruple world champion Vettel for 2021.
