"Consequences"? As in "I'm so mad I'll fucking do it! I'll sign for Red Bull!". I think that's what a lot of people seem to want. Nobody wants Nando to retire 😢

Consequences as in his lawyers will write some strongworded letters to some twitter personalities who spread rumours, I guess

The chances of this happening are a rounding error. Red Bull need a #2 who is fast enough to pick up wins when Max can't and take points off his rivals.

They need a Bottas, not an Alonso.

As an armchair team principal, I'd take even Bottas over Alonso. And Ricciardo over either.

Unless Alonso commits to the mother of all 2nd driver contact with an iron-clad non-disparagement clause.

So won't happen.

As a fan though, I'll pray to whatever deity to let it happen, what delicious drama we'd have on our hands.

An ambiguous tweet from an established Spanish F1 journalist was subsequently interpreted as a hint that Alonso could leave Aston Martin after only one season in a seat swap with under pressure Red Bull driver Sergio Perez.

Makes sense for Checo and Stroll. Plus Max Vs Nando would be great

This is just Alonso hyping himself, as with the Taylor Swift stuff. Great work from Alonso the business man :D
