Autosport.com have quoted Alonso's thoughts for this race "We want to win races no doubt," he said, "but we are also very realistic. We know we were not very competitive in the last two or three grands prix and the updates in the car will be minimum now, so we remain more or less similar. Monza is very unique though - we do 100 per cent in every weekend, but here there is an extra care. I think there is a special atmosphere and special motivation, starting from the mechanics and engineers. Obviously winning for Ferrari last year was an amazing feeling, with all the passion in Italy that people feel for Ferrari. That is the aim this weekend, to do well and to enjoy the race." Work has already began on building a more aggressive, competitive car for the 2012 season, hopefully it will be a field leading car from the start.
The BBC commentary team have been in Monza providing a few images via twitter, @jakehumphreyf1 provided this shot of David Coulthard doing a walk around of the Monza circuit yesterday (Thursday) http://desmond.yfrog.com/Himg807/sca...=640&ysize=640

Following today's (Friday) free practise session, McLaren head the Red Bulls and our boys are down the pack in 7th & 8th. Hopefully qualifying tomorrow will be a good bit better for the two Ferrari's and they can get a good position on the grid for the start of the GP.
