F1 rumors: Fernando Alonso moving to Ferrari in 2009

Gone are the days when F1 was all about the racing, it seems that all the action goes on in the courts like last year or behind closed doors with future driver deals. The world of Formula 1 is dominated by rumors, and the latest is that Fernando Alonso could be moving to Ferrari in 2009.

The two time world champion has a two-year deal with Renault which would see him with the team until the end of 2009; however he does have an early get out clause. If Renault does not perform well then Fernando Alonso is free to move on, and it seems as if Ferrari are showing interest.

At the moment Ferrari have Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa; the F1 team is more than happy with current world champ Raikkonen however it seems as if things are not so good for Felipe Massa. The problem is since traction control was banned; Massa is having a hard time controlling his car. So if he does not get to grips with his machine, you could be seeing Fernando Alonso in a Ferrari. This would be great for the team, as they would have two world champions driving for them.
