He lost the race

No. Did he? eeek:


He may well have lost that race, and indeed the championship THIS year, but he has gained immense respect and admiration from millions globaly.
He hasn't lost the battle for future championships though. He will have learnt from his mistakes this year.

We have a future English F1 world champion in the making. Odds on. happy088

He says it's because of all the pressures of being a celebrity, I say it's because Switzerland is a nice little tax haven.

Has Switzerland suddenly become more attractive than Monaco? P'raps it's the clocks... or the snow...

In his case it'll be the chocolate I expect.

Former world champion Fernando Alonso has left McLaren after negotiating an early release from his contract.

McLaren and Alonso have had an acrimonious relationship this season and a team statement said that both parties had "agreed to move on".

Alonso is free to join another team in 2008, and his agent said neither party would pay a financial penalty.

Red Bull and Renault are the favourites to sign him, and BBC Sport understands Red Bull are the more likely option.

Alonso's relationship with McLaren soured following a series of rows with team boss Ron Dennis this season.


I am sure this little piece of news will cheer up Growler, it did me. cloud9:

Driving for Red Bull will bring him down a notch or two...   whistle:

No, that would have been 'very short'.

'Quite short' would have been more Ronnie Corbett, or Growlers fuse. whistle:
