^^^^ he's a cheeky little imp that Gonzo! Sounds like he is stirring the pot and playing mind games with Lewis, or if nothing else, trying to wind him up. I think he knows the title this year is between the two of them.

Six and two threes. Alonso has shown great composure this season. I'm sure he wouldn't have actually said that he'd be happy with Hamilton as a team mate, but only if he was number two. He's not that daft.

[vRS Carl]

Correct he never said "i'd be happy with Hamilton as a No.2" But we all know that he would NEVER play second fiddle whilst at Ferrari (or any other team for that matter) as he is far too arrogant for that.

Here is the original story and what he said.

Lol, so he said precisely f*ck all. You guys

[vRS Carl]

Eh? He quite clearly is quoted as saying he would have no problem with whoever Ferrari selected to replace Massa. (Wether that be Vettel or Hamilton)

It's called reading between the lines.

So he said he doesn't care who he works with. Crime of the century. Hang that man.

[vRS Carl]

I think you have gone off half cocked here Andrew!!

All that has been said is that Alonso now wouldn't have a problem with Hamilton (or anyone else) being the other driver at Ferrari. This is contrary to statements given in the past by him. No one has said anything has been done wrong or committed a crime

I know you fantasise about Alonso, but not everything said about him, by me or others, is always a dig!

My comments were aimed at MC71 ("stirring the pot", "playing mind games"), who seemed to interpret your original post incorrectly IMO. I realise you weren't being critical of Alonso (which makes a change).

The fantasise thing was funny, I enjoyed that.

[andrewparker]

Incidentally, does anyone follow Lewis on Twitter?

[vRS Carl]

Nope.

I get his and Jenson's face ache feeds though.

[andrewparker]

A taster.



I think he fancies himself as a young Tupac.

[andrewparker]

Say what you like about Alonso, but you aren't going to find him posing in front of a private jet like that!

[MC71]

 Yeah, I follow the chap on twitter. He does seem to spend a lot do time taking photos of himself with other famous peeps (although he calls them all "homie") and by planes and helicopters!!

Not sure if I got the wrong end of the stick or not but if Alonso said that he would be happy to have Hamilton as his no.2, surly Hamilton would take it as a "cheeky wind up", even if it was just a throw away comment.


I have no problem with Alonso, just have my flag against the British mast, beit Lewis or Jenson. If along the way they beat the Spaniard, all the better.

Alonso has said this season that he wouldn't have a problem with Hamilton being his No.2 driver.

The stumbling block would be Hamilton not wanting to play 2nd fiddle. It's apparently what caused the rift with them in the first place.

If it actually came down to hamilton going to ferrari there is no way gonzo would allow it. Hamilton blatantly outclassed him at Mclaren, deffo mind games going on there. Im pretty sure gonzo had to resort to blocking hamilton in the pits the last time round to slow him down

Ever wondered why Gonzo is obsessed with getting one over on Hamilton? He feels threatened by him, thats why he puts some much effort in complaining about hamilton over the radio trying to get him penalties......all the time! He never does it with anyone else to this extent thats for sure. One race he spent the entire time moaning about hamilton and asking if he had got a penalty lol.

[RobH]

Honestly i dont care what Hamilton gets up to off track, he has worked hard for where he is today and if it means going on private jets then crack on..... i would!!!
