Hamilton pitted 3 laps earlier than Alonso, beat him in Qually 1, was always close to Alonso during practice and would be expected to improve session by session as he had never seen the track before, let alone driven it.

There have been tracks where Alonso was clearly better, some where Hamilton was faster and some where it was close and an error or perfect lap made the difference......I believe it's called competition
