People worldwide watched this final showdown and imagined countless possible outcomes, but no one expected Alonso to have a car crash.
Being second only to Schumacher in terms of honors and achievements within the paddock, Alonso has spent at least five of his ten-year professional career contending for the championship. Whether facing predecessors or juniors, Alonso has seen all kinds of storms and waves.
How could he have made a judgment error in the final race of the season?
Bear in mind that Jenson Button, also a world champion, is almost on par with Alonso in rain racing. His hesitation to slow down was due to the tires completely failing to grip the surface, exceeding the limits of physical laws.
Alonso was using dry tires as well, and if Button couldn't grip the road, undoubtedly neither could he.
