It will be “difficult” for Sebastian Vettel to defend his title in 2011 because Fernando Alonso is F1’s best driver.<\/p>\n
That is the view of 63-year-old Brazilian Emerson Fittipaldi, who like Spaniard Alonso is a double world champion.<\/p>\n
When asked by Germany’s Die Welt newspaper if German youngster Vettel will win again in 2011, he answered: “It is possible, but it will certainly be very difficult.<\/p>\n
“Ferrari will be improving their car for 2011 to make up the little missing piece from this season.<\/p>\n
“And Fernando Alonso is currently the most complete driver,” insisted Fittipaldi.<\/p>\n
“He has so much experience and as much ambition, and he doesn’t like to lose,” he said.<\/p>\n
Fittipaldi also thinks Michael Schumacher will be back to full strength in 2011.<\/p>\n
“Before the race in Sao Paulo I had breakfast with (Mercedes bosses) Ross Brawn and Norbert Haug and they assured me that the next car will better meet Michael’s style.”<\/p>\n
“I believe in Michael Schumacher,” he admitted.<\/p>\n
