(CNN) -- Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher has told CNN that the Red Bull team should have already tied up the Formula One drivers' title -- and can only blame themselves for not having done so. Fernando Alonso is in pole position to win his third crown, this time for Schumacher's former team Ferrari, at the 2010 season finale in Abu Dhabi this weekend. The Spaniard has an eight-point lead from Mark Webber, with the Australian's Red Bull teammate Sebastian Vettel another seven points off the pace. The Austrian outfit has already clinched the constructors' title, but Schumacher claims the drivers' battle should not have gone to the final race -- hinting at the widespread reports of tension between Vettel and Webber.
