Alonso: Lead battle too close to call

Fernando Alonso thinks there is little separating the top teams in Formula 1 at the end of pre-season testing - as he predicts that it will be small details that will decide the outcome of the first races of the campaign. Although many had singled out Red Bull Racing as favourite after its strong winter testing performance, a series of updates on the Ferrari helped Alonso deliver a strong race simulation run at Barcelona this week to hint at a very strong challenge from him too. And rather than feel that his team is playing catch-up to Red Bull Racing, Alonso says his confidence is as high as it was at the start of the last campaign – when Ferrari had gone into the year fighting for the championship.
