Fernando Alonso says that he is unmoved by the 10-year anniversary of his second and last world championship.

Fernando Alonso has said that he is unmoved by the 10-year anniversary of his second and last world championship.

Still regarded as arguably the best driver on the grid today, the Spaniard has failed to win a third title since winning back-to-back with Renault in 2006.

"Whether it's 10 years, five or 12, it's just a number - nothing changes," Alonso said when asked about the anniversary by Spanish broadcaster Movistar.

"I'm so deep in the weekend that you don't think of anything else, but of course I see the pictures of that day [in 2006] with joy and pride.

"I always approach with the same objective, which is to be the best. Whether you're in F1 or playing tennis or whatever, you always try to be the best."

Ahead of the 2015 season, Alonso left Ferrari after five years to join McLaren-Honda, who the now 35-year-old says have been concentrating on 2017 for some time.

"I am competing in F1, trying to be the best and that means being world champion," he said.

"We are far from that possibility today, but hopefully next year we will get closer."

The 2016 championship continues tomorrow with the United States Grand Prix.
