Alonso ignores Hamilton sabotage reports
Fernando Alonso has fended off the latest press revelations about his stormy relationship with McLaren and Lewis Hamilton in 2007.
In his newly-launched biography about Bernie Ecclestone, author Tom Bower said Spaniard Alonso had asked his then boss Ron Dennis in Hungary to sabotage the sister car driven by Hamilton so that it ran out of fuel.
Bower’s ‘No Angel’ book also claimed that Alonso, who now drives for Ferrari, tried to blackmail Dennis into making him the team’s number one driver in exchange for keeping quiet about spygate emails.
“I ignore what is said from other countries,” Alonso was quoted by the Spanish press at a sponsor event in Madrid.
Asked about the Bower accusations specifically, he added: “I don’t know — everybody is getting on with their own jobs.”
