Alonso braced for 'tough' and 'demanding' Japanese GP starting last

Fernando Alonso is braced for a "tough" and "demanding" Japanese Grand Prix on Sunday when he starts from last place on the grid at Suzuka after taking a Formula 1 grid penalty. A hydraulic leak forced McLaren to change Alonso's entire Honda power unit, triggering a 35-place grid drop that resigned the Spaniard to P20 for the start of the race. Alonso managed to qualify 10th on Saturday before dropping back after the penalty was applied, and is uneasy about his chances of fighting back up the order given the lack of overtaking opportunities at Suzuka.
