Alonso up, Massa downFernando Alonso and McLaren "humiliated" Ferrari by leading a one-two victory at Sepang on Sunday.
That was how the Spanish newspaper 'Marca' described 25-year-old Alonso's maiden win for the Woking based team, despite the earlier dominance
of the scarlet cars and Felipe Massa in the Malaysian heat.
Marca poked fun at Massa's "ridiculous" errors in letting both McLarens past at the first corner and then going off the track trying to re-pass the English rookie Lewis Hamilton.
Referring to Alonso, the newspaper wrote: "Nobody would have counted on a victory for the Spaniard."
Another Spanish newspaper, El Mundo, agreed that for Ferrari it was a "devastating" afternoon near Kuala Lumpur.
French daily sports paper 'L'Equipe’ chose to praise McLaren's new silver clad pair, after
Kimi Raikkonen,
Juan Pablo Montoya and Pedro de la Rosa failed to deliver a single win in 2006.
"Should we now wonder if Fernando and Lewis make up the very best driving pair in formula one?"
'Le Parisien' agreed: "Alonso is back."
