Fernando Alonso was disgruntled after being hit by a mechanical problem in qualifying for the Singapore Grand Prix, where the Spaniard reckons he lost the best chance of the season to do big things.

"Yeah, no doubt about it. We haven't been this strong anywhere," said Alonso after going out in Q2 when his Renault stopped with a fuel pump problem.

"We have been first in nearly all sessions and with an easy lap in Q1 I was sixth.

"In other races we wouldn't have lost much but here we have lost the biggest chance we had," added the Spaniard, who had topped Friday's practice and this morning's third session.

Alonso, who is yet to climb onto the podium this year, will start from 15th position, his worst qualifying result of the season.

The two-time champion reckons the front row of the grid was possible in today's session.

The angry Spaniard said all his chances of a positive result were gone.

"The pole position was unreachable, but I'm sure we would have been second or third," he said.

"The race is lost. You can't overtake here and I'm starting from 15th, so I will be going out just to lap the track, but it's over already.

"If there are 10 or 12 retirements and there are safety cars... but there are no miracles. We have to do a better job on Saturday, especially on tracks like this where you can't overtake.

"We said all weekend that starting from eighth or ninth would be a problem, so starting from 15th it's all over."

Q. (Fréderic Ferret - L'Equipe) Lewis, with Felipe on pole and you on the dusty side, do you think it could be a remake of Valencia?

LH: Most likely. It's the dirtier side, so it's always the slower side.

Q. Fréderic Ferret – L'Equipe) So after the start do you think it will be Felipe in front and then you?

LH: It depends who gets to the first corner first. As I said, it's unlikely to be able to overtake, so we might see another Valencia.

I think so.

He's leaving the field behind.
