Alonso and McLaren part ways (what a surprise)

November 2, 2007

As reported in Autosport and PitPass, Alonso and McLaren have agreed to part ways. Alonso’s manager is saying that no money has changed hands, but this is hard to believe. Why would McLaren let Alonso go for nothing, only to go to a competitor. There are rumours that Alonso can only go to a privateer team for the duration of his McLaren contract (Williams, Red Bull, Spyker, or Toro Rosso). The real surprise is going to be where he ends up. My money is on a swap for Rosberg with Alonso going to Williams.
