[boobles]

Somewhere Fernando Alonso is scrambling for his phone...

Incredible news!

[hornetrider]

fk me how many people are gonna be scrambling for that seat!!

Lewis and Alonso back together?!

[VolvoT5]

20 odd drivers are now trying to get through to Toto.

As for Rosberg, Great on him... going out on a high. He knows he wont win another one so why not.

[furtive]

I guess he knows he'll never beat Lewis again so quit while you are on top

And JB thinks 'oh fk'

[chrisgtx]

I wonder why?
Is it that he always wanted to be world champion, now it's done, time for somthing else, he may be one of those people who can quite happily move from one thing to another without any sentimentality.

[aeropilot]

Didn't see that one coming.....

[rsbmw]

love to see Alonso get the call, if we end up with 3 relatively even teams next season there could be a genuine 6 way title battle

[Dr Z]

Oh. My. Days.

[anonymous-user]

That's so cool.

Become champion, then say right bugger you all, I'm off.

[rsbmw]

he knows his chances of defending it, or winning a second, are slim, go out on top - can't blame him

[Superbad]

In his heart he knows he'll never win it again, so he may as well quit.

Always seemed very family oriented.

Achieved what he wanted to and can now enjoy his time with his family.
