Ferrari reaches agreement to sign driver Fernando Alonso from 2010, replacing Kimi Raikkonen
MARANELLO, Italy (AP) — Ferrari has reached an agreement to sign driver Fernando Alonso, replacing Kimi Raikkonen starting next season.
Los Angeles Times - Sep 30 7:35 AM
Per a news search, the story that the deal was official was out by 7:35am EST (although there were even earlier reports that the announcement was coming).
This will be used as the cutoff as the outcome was known at that time.
Background:
He has strong friendship with Renault's boss but the car is not performing, and Alonso is desperate to go back to the fight for the championship.
There have been rumours that he could move to Ferrari, fueled by the move of sponsorship of Santander, the Spanish bank, from McLaren to Ferrari.
This question has been reissued, as the first time it was voided because the starting percentages seemed "very high".
Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.
