Alonso's clearly getting desperate...

That was a cheat worthy of Shoemaker himself

Oh dear.. looks like trouble at' mill!

Whatever comes out later, after seeing Ron Dennis fling his headset across the pitwall console (he was a bit pissed methinks!).. the reaction of the mechanics in the pit, LH's "err, no you had better ask the team!" comment in the conference, and Ron virtually ripping the headset of Alonso's trainer's head... says to me that was a definite delaying tactic!

I had to laugh at the commentators egging each other on... to get a quote from Ron.. "go on get in there!"

I really hope that they have the ***** to penalise Alonso in a public manner. Something along the lines of making sure his tyres are not ready when he is in the race. Delaying him just long enough so Lewis goes first, but no so much as to let somebody else get second.

That way McLaren still get the max points they were expecting, and Alonso gets publicly shammed.

When a double world champion resorts to actions like that, you know he is a worried insecure man.

Id love to be a fly on the wall in mclaren right now,
Its does smell of a Schui trick but I dont think even he would do it a to a team mate(not even eddie irvine lol) he must be desperate to even be thinking like that,
Lewis Is quicker so it should be ok for tomorrow

I totally agree, also how does it look to others, He has made himself a bit of a laughing stock down the Pit lane after the Massa bust up, this just adds to it.

Totally out of order.
Ron will be fuming.

Hope they fire the whining Spanish tw*t. Needs to be reminded that he works for the team- not the other way round.

Why is it reminding me of a scene from Days Of Thunder where he blocks Cole (cruise) in when he is in the pits by parking in front of him...

Not really any different from Schumacher parking in the middle of the track in Monaco last year. Hopefully Alonso gets the same punishment

Very stupid by Alonso - the fact of the matter is he didnt need to do it - at worst he would be second, almost certainly with more fuel, so he'd have the edge on Hamilton anyway assuming they maintained 1-2 at the start.

I'm still amazed McLaren are still racing without an impending ban/big fine/points deduction after being found guilty in the Ferrari spy case, but not being fined as FIA obviously dont want to spoil the championship (so rule book out the window then.. )

Lewis was clearly fuming at the press conference, the gritted teeth, tapping of the feet. Should have lumped Alonso in my book ...

very unsporting, it couldnt have been more blatant with everyone telling him to go.

hope he loses it on the first corner tommorow or gets rear ended at the start.

Despicable but certainly adds interest.

Stewards are on it now, talk about a signal from the trainer to Alonso.

Very silly of Alonso really.

One pole position gained but the psychological loss to Hamilton was much, much bigger in the long term.

Very bad, Alonso has severly gone down in my estimation as being the biggest loser in the history of Formula 1

I said at the time that Hamilton should have took his helmet off and twatted Alonoso in the face with it

I hope Alonso has an engine failure on the first lap, and that he gets penalised for his actions today

How could he possibly turn round in the press conference and say that the tyre blanket was still on his wheel and couldnt drive off
