Fernando - Alonso that in his 15-year F1 career, the most difficult to deal with the opponent is Michael - Schumacher. Yesterday was the seventh F1 world champion Michael Schumacher’s 48th birthday.

"Michael is really special," Alonso told Germany’s Bild, "Michael is definitely the most talented guy I’ve ever played against." Michael respected everyone, and he was a legend. For generations, he has always been a ruler of Formula One, and it is a great honor for me to have the chance to compete with him in the world championship.

"He’s tough, never throw in the towel, get the most out of every chance, in his own way, and every time he makes himself the best."

"I remember fighting in the last race of the 2006 season and he was unbeatable when Bridgestone was dominant and still able to resist when the Michelin tires were dominant, even when you With a perfect weekend, he can still win a third or fourth place when he thinks he can score a lot of points, and only Michael can do it.
