Ferrari chief says Alonso 'great' driver

Sep.9 (GMM) Ferrari's president at Monza refused to completely rule out Fernando Alonso joining the famous team at some point in the future.



Given his apparent unhappiness at McLaren, and the seriousness of the espionage affair, it is reported widely that the Spaniard might be on the lookout for a new home in the pit lane.



Alonso and Ferrari's relationship until now, however, has not been the best in the paddock, but Luca di Montezemolo would not rule out a collaboration in the future.



"He is a great champion and life is very long," the Italian is quoted as saying by the Spanish newspaper Marca.



"I am however very, very satisfied with our current drivers, especially as this season was a delicate one for us because we lost Michael (Schumacher)," Montezemolo added.



"We have won six of the twelve races and sometimes we have not taken advantage of some other opportunities because of things such as reliability problems. So we are very happy with the drivers.



"Alonso is not at the moment a topic for us although he is a great driver," he said.
