From the Pulpit
If Fernando Alonso really does split with McLaren at the end of this season, Ron Dennis obviously has to find a replacement. Matt Bishop thinks the answer might lie in the Spaniard's no-so-distant past
Will Fernando Alonso drive for McLaren in 2008? If the Istanbul scuttlebutt was anything to go by, and I think it was, then the answer is no. The relationship breakdown between him and his team is now too comprehensive, too irreparable, for that.
Moreover, Alonso seems uninterested in repairing it. In fact, he appears to be eager to enlarge the rift between himself and Ron Dennis, in particular. Hence his frankly idiotic recent comments about having brought six-tenths to the McLaren MP4-22's performance envelope and having had "nothing much" in return.
