    Oct.1 (GMM) His formula one future is secure in the form of a new multi year Ferrari contract, but Alonso may be slapped on the wrist for comments made after finishing on the podium at the recent Singapore grand prix.

    Finally with something to celebrate after weeks of "crash-gate" intrigue, the Renault driver dedicated the result to his sacked and banned team boss and manager Flavio Briatore during the international television segment of the post-race FIA press conference.

    Two British newspapers claim Alonso could be in trouble for his tribute to the CONVICTED CHEAT.

    Alonso may face censure from the FIA after he upset the governing body. The articles said F1 officials were "fuming" after the Briatore cherrio. The newspapers said "The words caused furore in the paddock."

    I'm sure he could care less if they punish him. What's the big deal anyway.

    The convicted cheat who helped get Alonso's career off of the ground? I thought it was a stand up thing to do. Cheat or no cheat, Alonso might had never made it big without Flavio.

    British newspapers moaning over cheats?

    I guess they forgot that when they point fingers at someone, there is always atleast three pointing back at you.
