Alonso’s best shot

-

FORMULA 1: Two-time champion Fernando Alonso is almost in retirement mode, but doesn’t think it is time to relax just yet. The Spanish driver said he could score the last points of his 17-year career at the Brazilian Grand Prix on Monday. The 37-year-old believes the Interlagos circuit is more suited to his McLaren than Abu Dhabi, where the season ends on November 25. “If we want to score points, this is the chance for us,” said Alonso, who will quit F1 at the end of the campaign. “We have some uncertain weather for the weekend coming. Maybe that gives us more possibilit­ies.”
