The stars were bright, Fernando
How many Abba jokes can we do with Alonso's name? A lot. What, however, is he going to do next year? Could it be that's he's waiting to see if Ron Dennis will retire? Will he consider returning to McLaren if he wasn't there? The bad blood between Lewis and Fernando could perhaps be overcome - I think it was mostly a press invention anyway - the real problem was with Dennis, I believe. It seems as if a Ferrari seat is a long way off. Alonso's only choice is to gamble: who will be able to challenge the top two teams next year? Honda, who've been preparing for the rule changes longer than anyone else? BMW, who were very quick earlier this year but are now focusing on next season? Or Renault, who are fast now, and although he won Singapore out of luck, might easily have finished on the podium if he'd qualified properly? I wouldn't like to be in his shoes (or helmet).

There are rumours that Santander who currently sponsor McLaren will also sponsor Ferrari next year (as Marboro did for many years).
The rumour also goes that Santander will buy Kimi out of his contract and put Alonso there.
Apparently Ferrari weren't able to say no to Kimi on his current contract. Based on his performance he was able to enforce another year. Kimi will have to decide if he wants the money more than Alonso does.
