Alonso denies rumors about his future in F1
Currently on vacation like most drivers, Fernando Alonso has denied the rumors related to his future. Another rumor suggests that Honda wants a Japanese driver.
During an excursion in the Italian Dolomites, the Spaniard reacted to the latest news about him being linked to McLaren, as well as the 50 million dollars annually he is reportedly demanding to sign a new contract with Ferrari.
On his Twitter account, Alonso denied these rumors:
« Something that is not true, even copied a thousand times, will remain false, it’s always useful to remember that. » writes the Ferrari driver.
While McLaren will change engine supplier for next season, another rumor emerged during this summer break: Honda is reportedly interested in hiring a Japanese driver for the 2015 season.
According to Grand Prix, Naoki Yamamoto, a driver for the Mugen team affiliated with Honda participating in the Super Formula championship in Japan, is a candidate. On Japanese television, he did not deny a potential move to McLaren, stating that it was not impossible that he could be that driver.
