Alonso praises ‘unbelievable’ Ricciardo

Fernando Alonso has heaped praise on rival Daniel Ricciardo after the pair enjoyed a fair fight in the closing laps of the German Grand Prix which saw them finish just hundredths apart.

“Daniel is a surprise from Australia. I think he’s doing unbelievable,” said Alonso after the race. “I think he’s seven-three in the first ten races with Sebastian [Vettel], so it’s something we probably didn’t suspect [to see].”

The pair tussled for several laps with each making daring but fair moves without once making contact.
