Alonso bides his time over future


Alonso had an unhappy season with McLaren in 2007

Double world champion Fernando Alonso is in no hurry to decide where he will drive next year, his manager says.


Renault team boss Flavio Briatore said on Monday he expected a decision from the Spaniard within two days.

Alonso's manager Luis Garcia Abad told TZNEWS Sport: "He will decide when he knows the best option for his future."

He would not specify when Alonso would make a decision, but he denied he was waiting for the outcome of Renault's hearing on spying charges next month.

Renault have been summoned before Formula One's governing body to answer a charge of possessing confidential McLaren technical information.

McLaren, for whom Alonso had a tempestuous season in 2007, were excluded from this year's constructors' championship and fined $100m (£48.6m) after being found guilty on a similar charge in September.
