What about webber? surely the man has proved – in a good car he could be anything. Does he deserve a shot at a top team?

Mika will be back in McLaren and help Hamilton.
Alonso back for Renault with kovy.
Or….Mclaren stick to their line up.. after all, the competetiveness within team mates that gives them the X factor.

Well, it certainly will show how un-professional about the matter I am, but I don’t like either Alonso or Hamilton, and if I were Ron, I’d get rid of both of them as not being `team players’.

I really doubt that Ron can put Alonso in a Prodrive car without breaking the contract. What I think is funny is that Alonso has made comments about honouring his contract and staying for next year. I’m not completely convinced he is leaving. Why hasn’t it been anounced already if he would.

Has anyone thought that Mclaren could put Alonso into the Prodrive team as a “punishment” that also keeps Alsono under contract yet out of Ron’s hair (not much left after all!) and also splits Hamilton and Alonso up nicely. DLR could then switch across for Santander and help LH with setup.

I agree with Uk – if Alonso leaves, then Hamilton is going to be the clear teamleader number 1 driver so all the focus will be on him.

Had McLaren not signed Alonso for this season then I doubt very much Ron would’ve promoted Hamilton to a race seat so soon as he would be unlikely to trust Hamilton to set up the car properly.

So from that point of view I would suggest a test driver will get the nod to drive alongside him to help with that side of things.

I think best chance for Alonso is Renault, remember Fisico used to be 4th or 5th when Alonso used to be first, beatting guys like Raikkonen and Mr Schumacher, notthing less than Schumi.
Of course Hamilton is a great driver, but as great as Kubica, Kova, rosberg, and many others, What do you think this guys may have done with the Mc Laren?, Next year pressure on Ham is going to be tremendous, we will see how he supports it….

Thinking about it, if Alonso does go they may well put de la Rosa in the car to keep Banco Santander on-side. After all, they don’t need to lose any more money this year.
