Jenson Button believes Fernando Alonso will face tough championship battle ? Formula 1 news

McLaren driver, Jenson Button has said that the current leader in the drivers? championship, Fernando Alonso of Ferrari will face a tough battle in the season ahead.

Alonso is presently leading the drivers? rankings with 164 points and has a very good lead over his main competitors, Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel of Red Bull Racing.

Although, Button said that he is very much impressed by the development of the Italian team in the season so far and admired the performance of the two-time world champion who has successfully limited the probable damage for his team. However, he insisted the Spaniard will not win the title easily as he will receive a strong challenge from the other contenders in the remaining nine races of the season.

?The team [Ferrari] have done a great job to get the points they have, but I don't think they've really had the speed,? Button said. ?They are going to manage it well, they are a great team and Fernando is a great driver. But it's tough when you see other teams winning races consistently and I think that might be happening over the next few races.?

In addition, he said that even though he is 88 points behind Alonso in the drivers? standings, nevertheless, he asserted that he is looking forward to come up stronger in the approaching races and is aiming to secure a competitive position.

Besides, he said that after facing difficulties in few races, they have managed to perform stronger in the last couple of grands prix on which he is extremely happy. He also said that their car has got the potential to achieve more and they are planning to launch some major updates in it so as to make a strong appearance in the Belgian GP.

?So the general car is good and the improvements that we've put on it at the last two races have been great and I think we're very good at getting everything together at the moment,? he added.

Above and beyond, it will be interesting to see how the Woking based team comes up in the second half of the season.
