Where are the Alonso fans? He's leading the WDC standings, gets pole and not one post?
I'm not an Alonso fan but I am impressed by the man and what he's achieved. He needs only another four successive points finishes to equal Schumacher's record of 24, and he's been on the podium for 13 of those.

Most Alonso fans are too proud to even gloat about his performances.

It'd great if there were many active Alonso fans but there are not. There just aren't enough of those fans who'd dig up all the interesting facts and news. We are in serious need for some of those.

Personally, if I post here regularly its likely that I'd be tackling some hard critics instead of doing any 'merrymaking' with other Alonso fans, and I don't really feel like I need to convince people that Alonso is superior to other drivers. I usually like comparing the other drivers for 'the best of the rest'.

Alonso sucks.. troll troll troll eyebrows nonsense shit [/endoftrolling]


My first post in Alonso's thread. I'd just like to say he's my new Schumaker. The guy you love to hate and get the most satisfaction if your driver beats him. He's been phenomenal since 2011, and pulling the team in the right direction where it lacks proper management in Dominicali

I see him, hopefull after so many year, running a team himself.

GOO FERNANDO!! But please don't win this year's WDC I'd still love to hang on the "Kimi last Ferrari WDC" for few more years

I'm sure there're his fair share of fans here, and with the way he's performing this year, he's getting new ones every race.

Personally I don't feel the need to defend Alonso or try to say anything to "prove" that he is the best. It's quite pointless here anyway, since as far as a big chunk of users here are concerned, his entire career, lifetime achievement, and where he stands among all F1 drivers in history, were already defined in 2007

"Bello vincere in Germania? Non voglio parlare di politica, ma è chiaro che la situazione non è bellissima in Spagna e un pilota spagnolo che vince su una macchina italiana è una cosa fantastica."

Now only the 5th driver in F1 history to reach the 30-win plateau. Amazing, and congrats!

There's talk that the teams could be bunched up very close this year, closer than last year anyway. I hope its true. Ferrari doesn't look as if its gonna be that good but if the gaps between teams are small maybe there's hope yet for Alonso talking his 3rd WDC. I was heartbroken when he didn't win it in 2010. He is too good to just be double world champion.

Prost is my favorite among drivers whom I've never seen live. I find many similarities between him and Alonso and I'd like Alonso to reach 4 championships like him.

Unfortunately Prost has more hope in Hamilton and probably Vettel.

Actually he said during winter that JB is the favorite to win the title. I don't think he likes Alonso much because of what went down in '07. Anyway that's not going to affect what's happening with Alonso now.

I don't think that is the case: http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive ... 04715.html

Who is she?

Is that a new lady because I've seen pictures of her in the paddock with him this weekend.

Alonso will be WDC this year for sure now.

I thought people might enjoy this, the latest cover of Autosprint, which is a weekly Italian auto racing magazine:

Well! I thought I better join this thread seeing as it is the "Official" Fernando Alonso thread

It was Alonso who brought the excitement back to F1 when a certain Mr Schumacher was winning day in, day out, F1 was incredibly boring and worse still, it was predictably boring, that is until, the very nice Sn Alonso weaved his voodoo

Alonso to Mclaren I think we are all agreed was a huge mistake for Fernando and infighting cost him his 3rd WDC, to finish equal on points with the whole Mclaren operation seemingly against him was quite a spectacular feat in itself and I do wonder how others drivers would have coped given the same environmental circumstances.

Alonso showed he could face the cruel winds that were rallied against him, he was then the existing WDC but was treated unfairly imho but it is time to move on from that and concentrate on what this year can bring. A third WDC? fingers crossed, personally I think if Vettell wins again and convincingly so, it will be a return to the schuey era and for that reason I will get behind anyone but SV, hopefully it will be Alonso taking the fight to Red Bull, but I have no qualms about supporting Button or Hamilton if they are the ones to take away the Red Bull dominance.

Back on topic!! Alonso is just brill.

+1

Totally agree and hopefully RBR have had their day

Hopefully this engine map thing has cost them something. ...anything to stop Vettel from locking out pole position.

Any rain for quali forecast?

How is he the fastest driver on the grid if his ROOKIE team mate beat him in 2007 with the same car

Lewis Hamilton is def. better now than he was in 2007 and Button beat Lewis, therefore we def know that we have a minimum of 2 drivers faster than Alonso, not to mention Kimi, Vettel, Webber, Schumacher, Roseberg, Kobayashi, are ALL FASTER than him.

Your smoking crack or something.
What have you been watching?
Alonso can drive around and over or through anyone near him on any course in F1 today.
He is only held back by a stupid tire design and a Ferrari design going through teething problems that are being worked out.
Got news for you.
With Ferrari now coming to grips with their pull rod design, I throwing my money on Alonso not only for this year but next year also.
Sheech, open your eyes dude.
