Fernando Alonso has an agreement to switch to Ferrari in 2011, Italy's La Gazzetta dello Sport claims.

The former champion, who is linked with the famous Maranello-based team on an almost weekly basis, could even switch to Ferrari in 2010 as an early replacement for 2007 champion Kimi Raikkonen the newspaper claimed.

Gazzetta said the agreement with 27-year-old Alonso is quite open, with numerous two-sided exit clauses, but that if fully exercised could see the driver race at Ferrari until the end of 2014.


A Ferrari spokesman said only: "We can only repeat that we have two drivers signed to the end of 2010."

Alonso's current Renault contract also runs for two more years.

i really think and hope this is a rumor

 

^Care to explain? I think they would be killer together...

 

there goes the idea of vettel racing for scuderia ferrari

 

well i cant deny he is an excellent driver, but i look for more in a driver, the way he represent the team is important...
he is not a team player, needs to be the only man of the show, look how it ended with mclaren.
add to that he is a madrid supporter....
in simple words " i dont like him, never will"

 

Let's see how he does for Renault this year. If he's still competitive, then there is good chance he'll be driving for Scuderia Ferrari if Kimi can't pick up the pieces and figure out where he went wrong this past season.

 

alonso would be spectacular in a ferrari. look what he has done this year in a bloody renault! all he needs is a proper car, he is mega in even halfway decent machinery.

he would put the fear in lewis no doubt.

 

I like you already.

 

Fernando Alonso's manager has admitted that the Spanish former double World Champion wants to race for Ferrari one day.

"That Fernando has expressed some interest in racing for Ferrari is no secret," said Luis Garcia Abad, following reports in the Italian media that Alonso, 27, has inked a secret deal to switch to the Maranello-based team in 2011.

Abad, however, told the news agency EFE that any suggestion of a done deal would be premature.

"2011 is still a long way away," he said. "It is too early to talk about that."

"Formula One is going through a time of great difficulty from an economic point of view, so it is difficult to think about the future."

Kimi's head is not in it anymore. Evidence? Spa 2008.

Alonso is a great driver, but a petulant little twat outside the car. I'm sure he'll win many titles with Ferrari, but I don't think he'll improve his standing unless he does some soul-searching (or some other driver slaps him in the face).
