Fernando Alonso’s Big Mystery…..explained….sort of

Motorsport Blog

We all know that during testing ahead of the 2015 season Fernando Alonso unfortunately crashed and was taken to hospital.  Various conspiracy theories have been flying about regarding the reasons for him crashing and on #Pitbored recently, I blurted out a conspiracy theory of my own, admittedly it’s a bit far fetched,  but at the time, little did we know how true it was to becoming reality, none of us on the show actually thought he would miss the Australian GP dismissing this rumour as nonsense…. but sometimes, just sometimes there’s a little truth behind every nonsense theory.

We now know that indeed Fernando is to sit out the Australian race while Kevin Mangussen deputises, I only wonder for how long though?  call me crazy but I’m not entirely sure we’ll see Fernando racing in Malaysia either!  Have a listen, see what you think……
