Alonso: We will have to grit our teeth and work hard

After a frustrating winter, Ferrari's Fernando Alonso has warned that the first few rounds of the 2012 season could prove difficult for the Italian team. Alonso, however, is confident they can resolve their development struggles and reverse their fortunes before it is too late. Â"We definitely still need to improve a lot, working on our understanding of the F2012, adapting my driving style to a new car which, with the loss of aerodynamic downforce at the rear and the new Pirelli tyres, is a bit harder to drive,Â" explained the Spaniard in his blog on Ferrari's official website.
