Alonso expecting equality with Hamilton in Brazilian decider

FERNANDO ALONSO is confident of receiving the equality he seeks ahead of what is likely to be his final grand prix with McLaren.

The Brazilian Grand Prix represents the last enthralling race of the year on Sunday — a cliffhanger involving championship leader Lewis Hamilton, Alonso and Ferrari star Kimi Raikkonen.

It is the first time since 1986 a championship showdown has gone down to the wire and involved three drivers, and on that occasion it was Nigel Mansell who missed out on glory.
