what is wrong with F Alonso

why is alonso blowing things out of proportion. Weve seen alot of similar incidents occuring in the past. He isnt the first or last driver to be fighting for the championship. Personally i think the he is acting in avery unprofessional way, and recently labelling MS as the most "unsporting F1 driver" and also sayind that the championship has been decided around a table instead of being decided on the track.His reactions are going to cause people to dislike him even more, especially the millions of schumi fans out there.

I think Renault are getting into a little mind game to preempt cheating... claim cheating now so that Ferrari is on the spotlight and simplay cannot cheat.

Alonso is immature, if not arrogant. I hope he grows up before he outgrows his helmet.

I agree, FA needs to cool it a little bit and focus more on driving.

I think Alonso made a big mistake for critisizing MS like that. After all this is MS's 16th season in f1. I wonder how many questionable incidents will Alonso go through in 5 years time.

I think Alonso should appologise concerning his immature remarks.

now he is at it with his own team and teammate.
he accused his teammate of overtaking him in china whilst his own car was not performing, and he said that his team deliberatly made his pitstop longer.
how ungratefull.

I m glad that the shanghai GP was all about humility for him.

You know I've been reading that all over, but haven't found the source... I mean a serious reporter quoting him. Not defending him or anything, but I alway like to read the source before giving credibility to these things.

If you read where he is in fact quoted, then its a different story: We made a mistake with changing tyres on the first stop, but we have a very competitive car and should be able to win in Japan...

EDIT: Just to show how reading the entire interview is important, F1live reported this quote by Alonso:

"In the same situation I don't believe that (Ferrari's) Massa would have driven past Schumacher.
"

This could be interpreted as a slam on Fisi, but it could also be Alonso saying that team orders at Renault are not blatant as in Ferrari is defense of Todts blocking accusation.

Last night while watching the practice sessions I caught up with what F'ing Alonso has been saying. This guy will be taught to tone it down by Ron Dennis. Who the hell does he think he is?

I loved how Speed showed the pass. Would you all have passed? Damn straight!

He is making it quite hard to root for him.
