Picked up on some breaking news from our German sources that has just gone out in the English press that Fernando Alonso is set to announce he’s leaving McLaren.

Good riddance to a person who has done their level best to damage my team throughout this year. He’s a miserable little individual who can’t out-race a Rookie. Formula 1 is a team sport and I’ve always admired the way in which McLaren have held to the principal of treating both drivers equally and letting them get on with competing on the track.

I’m sure he’ll end up in a team who seem so predisposed to stroking his overinflated ego but thankfully we don’t have to put up with another year of him. We’ll see how much he repays his new team at the end of next season with loyalty or am I an old cynic who just thinks given the opportunity, he’ll be off to whatever team he thinks will benefit his own self-interest at that time?

Good riddance Fernando, you won’t be missed.
