Fernando Alonso confirms Ferrari stay following McLaren speculation

By , Staff Reporter
Fernando Alonso insists that he wants to stay with Ferrari for the next few years, despite being linked with a return to McLaren.

Fernando Alonso has confirmed that he wants to stay with Ferrari following comments from McLaren that they wanted to re-sign the Spaniard.

McLaren team principal Martin Whitmarsh admitted that he wanted Alonso back in the team, but conceded that he was unlikely to be driving for them next season.

Despite the interest from McLaren, Alonso has insisted that he will drive alongside Kimi Raikkonen for the next three years following the Finnish driver's move to Ferrari.

"I love Ferrari and I will stay until the end," Alonso told Sky Sports News. "It's nice to have comments from all the teams, but there is no intention [to leave]. I have three more years with Ferrari and hopefully many more to come."

Raikkonen will replace Felipe Massa next season.
