Cool dream, I wish to have a dream about F1 as well!

Fernando Alonso reckons that all the signs coming from McLaren at the moment suggest the team doesn't want him around in 2008

The Spaniard's future in Formula One remains a topic of hot debate despite both Renault and Ferrari recently saying they haven't signed any deals with him.

The rumours, though, still persist with the Bild claiming last week that Alonso had signed a letter of intent to race for Renault starting next season in a three-year deal.

However, that same day a Swiss publication reported that he had in fact signed that same letter of intent with Ferrari.

But while the rumours continue, McLaren have already said there will be no word on Alonso's future until after they've held talks in the post-season.

Alonso, though, doesn't believe those talks are going to do his McLaren future any good.

"From what they've said and done it doesn't look as though they are very keen and that they've got enough with one of the two drivers that are here and I've no problem with that," he told the Associated Press.

"There are another 10 or so teams that are interested in me."

Martin Brundle has suggested that the 'animosity' between McLaren and Fernando Alonso was the cause of Lewis Hamilton's demise in the Chinese GP

As the F1 world and his dog knows, Hamilton slithered off the Shanghai circuit on his badly-worn tyres after the team belatedly called him in to the pits.

Writing in The Sunday Times, Brundle opined that the team made the catastrophic mistake as a consequence of their apparent desperation to stop Alonso winning.

'It wasn't a case of getting him into a fuel window - they could comfortably have brought him in and fuelled him to the end,' he wrote. 'No, they were keeping him out for as long as they dared to give themselves the maximum possible time to make the call on tyres - dry or intermediates. The worry for them was that Alonso in their other car - fuelled for a few laps longer than Hamilton - would benefit from being able to make the tyre call later.

'Had the shower not ceased and they had put Hamilton on dry tyres, while Alonso had gone onto fresh intermediates, Hamilton would have needed to make a further corrective stop, which would have put him behind Alonso. So you had this extraordinary situation where McLaren were, along with the Ferrari of Raikkonen, fighting their own car driven by a man who has emerged as their biggest obstacle this year. The irony is that the animosity between Alonso and team probably took away their clarity of thinking.'
