Formula 1 legend Niki Lauda has claimed that Fernando Alonso is the "most complete driver" in the sport today.
The Spaniard currently leads the standings and Lauda believes that the Ferrari driver has the ability to survive any challenge from his rivals.
Lauda said: "He knows what to do and after years at Ferrari he has settled in, knows how to be consistent and has kept the team going forward step by step.
"Red Bull have technically caught up too, but all things considered I see Alonso as the most complete driver."
Alonso is the only driver to have won two races this season.
