Nowadays it can happen that from social media, increasingly present in our lives, rumors are born that go viral, to the point of confusing reality with fantasy. Something similar has happened in recent days involving Fernando Alonso and pop star Taylor Swift, who would have started dating. It all started with an anonymous message (!!!) spread on Instagram and which from there spread like wildfire on all platforms, facilitated by some specially highlighted clues.

THE ALLEGED EVIDENCE In favor of this potential new relationship plays the fact that both have recently returned single. In recent weeks Alonso announced the end of his engagement, which lasted about a year, with the Austrian journalist Andrea Schlager. Previously, the Spaniard had been a couple for a long time with Linda Morselli, Valentino Rossi’s ex-girlfriend. In the same period, Swift also announced that she had ended the relationship, which had lasted for 6 years, with actor Joe Alwyn. This laid the foundations for candidates for a possible new couple, but the detail that definitively connected them is truly imaginative: the current Aston Martin driver has been pursuing for years his win number 33 in F1 and coincidentally that figure also represents the American singer’s current age. From there it took a moment to think that the two-time world champion’s attention for that amount could involve the pop star.

ALONSO’S ANSWER What might seem like a… boutade born of some good-time fan has however gained so much visibility that it has reached at least one of those directly involved. Alonso seized the opportunity to capture the attention of the fans in an empty period of competitions, by posting a short video on TikTok that portrays him fiddling with his mobile phone while the song is heard in the background ”Karma” by Taylor Swift. Not even a random choice, given that the word ”karma” brings to mind a famous Spanish team radio at the 2017 Italian GP, who thus commented on the withdrawal of Jolyon Palmer with whom he had previously had a battle on the track. In short, the former Ferrari driver increased the dose with other details, also adding the comment ”Race week it was” which in turn refers to the current world tour of the singer, called ”The Eras Tour”. This does not mean that this gossip has any real basis, but as Alonso has shown, it is rather easy to feed an assumption in the age of social media. And who knows, who knows, at this point we really miss a date with Taylor Swift, at least to joke about this story that involved them both …
