Fernando Alonso is convinced Sebastian Vettel’s luck will run out soon.
Vettel goes into Sunday’s Canadian Grand Prix with a 21-point lead over Lotus’ Kimi Raikkonen while Alonso is back in third, a further eight points adrift of the triple world champion.
Alonso (left, with Vettel) is surprised his Red Bull rival has avoided the misfortune which has affected others. He pointed to the race a fortnight ago in Monaco, where Raikkonen dropped from fifth to 10th after colliding with Sergio Perez’s McLaren.
The Ferrari driver said: “What is a little bit out of normality at the moment is the points that Sebastian has scored in these six races. Unlucky races will come to everyone and will come to him as well. When that happend we need to maximise it.”
