Competition breeds performance. If one guy is designated first string and the other second, there is no real competition. Heck, the most exciting moment of the race was when Alonso attempted to pass Hamilton. Had this been any other series, they would have traded places multiple times.

Agree and remember where this is coming from. Prost may have been a very good driver but the French are not exactly seen as "go getters" around the world.
Alonso is worried because he has a up and coming world class driver in a car AS FAST AS HIS in the same team, and this is not what he bargained for when signing on with McLaren.
