Fernando Alonso leaves McLaren Mercedes


What was expected by many has happened . Alonso and his team McLaren Mercedes decided to separate their paths in the next season. Alonso disagreed the team's attitude of not making him the number 1 pilot ,although he was the defending double world champion while McLaren disagreed to Alonso's attitude towards the team and consider him to be the one to be blamed for the 100 million dollar fine from FIA plus the lost constructors title. Alonso declared that he never felt at home at McLaren ,allthough even as a child he dreamed of one day running for this great team.
