Default Alonso to Ferrari?

Did you hear the latest? It's reported that Alonso will be going to Ferrari next year for $40M to team with Kimi. That should be a nice struggle for #1 driver.

Massa is reported to be going to Toyota to replace Ralfy.

I wondered who would hire Alonso after trying to blackmail his team principles. I guess the slimeballs from Ferrari are attracted to that kind of personal character.

And with Ron Dennis admitting that his relationship with his driver is "extremely cold" and that Alonso's unhappy with the team's equality policy, the double World Champion's time at McLaren appears to be running out - and fast.
does he expect Kimi to be happy as a #2 driver????

The guy can drive, but what an ***

The demand to win causes strange bed fellows.

good racing and F1 should not be put in the same sentance! lol

i watched the GP bike the other day and they are soo much more intresting to wtach! probably cos they actually like to be close behind the guy in fornt rather than 100yds behind. lol

im sorry but untill they take all the aero stuff off of the F1s they will never be as good to watch as saloon or bike raicng.

just my opinion mind you.

as for alonso, TW*T! good driver but too much of a c*ck for his own good. and ferrari are stupid for wanting him. hes a back stabbing cry baby. whats he going to do to ferrari when hes not No.1 there like a Malarren????????

sorry for the rant

Chris.

No doubt! IMO, MotoGP is the best racing period! It's everything that I wished F1 was. If you haven't watched a MotoGP race, you're really missing out.

I don't know what Ferrari is thinking after Alonso tried to blackmail his boss to become #1 driver. I can't even imagine what Kimi is thinking. Ferrari might as well find a replacement for Kimi because I can't see him staying if they do sign Alonso.

I really like F1, but it really sucks when you can't stand the two current top teams in the sport.

Alonso is the best driver in the world, not only on track but technically as well.

The whole thing with McLaren is done for me. They have made the wrong decisions from the beginning of the year and have not handled situations well that have now led to what has trasncribed for them.

Pity that 2 people caused so much trouble...

While Alonso has become the scapegoat in all of this, he is the best driver. I feel that next year, if Alonso is not partnering Hamilton, we will be able to see if Hamilton can win on his own setups w/o copying Alonsos.

The #1 driver thing is getting old.... MS was a number one driver for a reason, just as Alonso should be. Why is the entire F1 world waiting for Alonso to go somewhere?

Alonso , the cheating little tool, will be using the same setups next year if he goes to Ferrari as that is whose he has been using this year. He is a pathetic whiner and is not nearly as good as Hamilton, Massa or Raikonen.

If he is using the same setup and being beaten, that shows his talent...

WHAT????

im not being horriable but they have totally diffrent styles of driving! just cos they both go fast dosen't mean they are the same.

i think Hamilton has proven himself in this year alone! come on to come into a top flight motorsport and get the results he has is just amazing.

all i hope is Mclarren can pull their fingers out their **** and make the car fast agian! we have all seen what happens to fast drivers (Button) when they are put in slow cars!

thanks Chris.
