<blushing> Thanks. I mean, why not use the driver names? They pay enough for their services and rights. And IMHO it'd be a lot more interesting than just numbers (of a system that constantly changes) or towns in Northern Italy.
As an Alonso fan, that article has been a long-time coming. It's fantastic for this all to finally be reality.
+ a million It is finally start to sink in. I can't wait to see him in a red racing dress with the cavallo rampante on his helmet. And I can't wait for his first Ferrari win.
Having your name on a Ferrari road car is a huge honor and by necessity a very rare event. Michael should certainly be 1st in line for any living person to be honored with a road car and it would have to be the next Super Ferrari to live up to his name, certainly not a 2+2. Given Kimi's tenure with Ferrari, don't look for him to EVER had a road car named after him. Alonso's story is yet to be written, but I hope he KILLS IT next year!! Oh wow, I'm cheering for Alonso now. Never thought I'd see the day.....
I think it's safe to say that in the state of Kansas (where I reside) there won't be a happier person when he gets that first Ferrari win.
from this article it doesn't look like he'll be there (stupid move anyway to take the Finals out of Italy) Carol (translated so not exactly correct for most of you) * * * Fernando Alonso has already signed several weeks ago, the Ferrari 2012, under which the Scuderia will be pilot. Alonso, in 2010, this year's Hungarian Grand Prix qualifying session Felipe Massa suffered a serious head injury csapattársaként will be included. Alonso, the week went to Italy, and the factory in Maranello, the leaders agreed, met new engineers. Fernando has, however, has to wait a bit. Alonso contract with Renault at the end of the year, losing only to be valid. If Ferrari want to show the Contract before the expiry of the Spanish, the Italians, the French account of 3 million would átutalniuk. The Scuderia has decided not to pay this amount, so Fernando on 31 December of the Renault F1 Team will pilot, and his events will appear. This also means that the Spanish will not be there on 15 November in Valencia, organized by the finale of Ferrari. Alonso is expected that the Ferrari 2010 race, the 661's four-wheel code on 2 February, on 3 and 4 on the test.
actually it's translated from Hungarian to English - if you prefer, here's the Hungarian version: http://alonso-raquel.gportal.hu/ Carol
Here's something in spanish. http://www.lasprovincias.es/alicante/20091108/deportes/motor/ferrari-calles-valencia-20091108.html "...The Italian Scuderia chose the 15 november for the official presentation of Alonso, In the end it's not clear if this is possible, since Alonso has a contract with Renault until the end of the year..." Apart from that they mention an exhibition in the streets of Valencia on Wednesday (including F1 and the 458) and the first day of Alonso at Ferrari I have seen Toy Renault F1 cars with big discounts long before the announcement of his Ferrari seat. What use is it to keep him attached to Renault until the end of the year.
Ah--THAT'S more like it Every time I read the title of this thread, I get an image of Fernando in pressed khakis, clean polo, a fresh haircut and his red backpack walking up to the Ferrari entrance like the first day of Kindergarten!
Sure he will be there and i can insure you that i m really happy to see this spectacle...next time it will be in you country wh knows?? be happy ˙·٠●♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ❉ʚįɞღ☆.·¨¯`·ི♥ྀღ .·..·❉¨☮*♪ ♥peace* ღ*✿*¨`*.ʚįɞ☮❉ღ*¨`*ི♥ྀღ ☮❉.´♫☆ ˙·٠●♥
