Fernando Alonso has laid out his strategy for the Abu Dhabi GP already dogs: The Ferrari star intends to attack from the start.

How many places Fernando Alonso makes the race in Abu Dhabi well?

Disappointment after Fernando Alonso was seventh in qualifying for the Grand Prix of Abu Dhabi did not arise. "I do not know what people were expecting," said the Ferrari driver. "The updates were good. It was clear that Red Bull still has an advantage over us. As I said, there's no magic in Formula 1" The big challenge was to continue, the car of Adrian Newey oppose something equivalent. "Even in a difficult Saturday was Red Bull second and third I've said it before in India. We fight especially against a very fast car, not against a particular driver," he said.

Satisfied, he turned out the fact that Lewis Hamilton had the two RB8 time behind. "Looking at the championship, it is good for us that McLaren is fast here," he said. "In particular, because we could not intervene in the battle for the pole." For Ferrari, it is now important to turn the less than optimal starting position for the best. One could help him to be there, that Sebastian Vettel had to park his car after qualifying off the track. Great hope that a disciplinary transfer of Vettel helps him compensate for the difference in performance was, the Spaniard, however.

"I see it very calmly," he said. "Of course it would help if he loses a couple of places, but we have to wait for the decision of the stewards." Alonso added that he had the race in Japan actually made greater hopes for return transfers. "I lost my lap in Q3," said the Ferrari star. "The decision that Red Bull and he made a mistake, but the punishment was only a warning was."

But even without the support of the race organizers felt the two-time world champion for 55 rounds on the Yas Marina Circuit ready - although he starts four places behind Vettel. Because of the many uncertainties could be a good weekend to transform from one moment to look bad. "It depends on many things: the car, the tires, the start, the strategy and the first round," said Alonso. "Let's see what happens tomorrow."

As in India, second in the championship will also attack the desert race. In his position he would have no other choice. "Because we are behind, we need to address in the first round a bit more risk," said the 31-year-old. "Actually, this is a situation you want to avoid when you're fighting for the championship, but we can not change anything." Alonso wants to change, however, the gap to championship leader Vettel - and best in his favor. "The goal is to begin tomorrow, is to make up points."
