Ferrari needs ' four or five' podiums to challenge for F One title: Alonso

London, May 12 (ANI): Racing champ Fernando Alonso has said Ferrari must crack down on chaos and score "four or five" podiums on the trot if he is to challenge for the world championship.

The Sun quoted the double world champ, 28, as saying: "So far we have had two engine problems, one gearbox problem, one jumped start, some chaotic races. But still we are only three points behind the leader, so we are happy."

"It's still very early in the championship, but better to be in the first three or four positions than eighth or ninth. From now we need four or five podiums in a row. We cannot have one podium and then another three races with mistakes if we are to win the championship," he added.

Alonso said: "We were a super Ferrari team over that weekend with no mistakes at all." (ANI)
