Was Alonso actually fired? I thought that he'd left by mutual consent!

Having said that, I don't think there's any chance it will happen. Lewis is happy at McLaren and McLaren are happy with Lewis, so that's good for F1. Also, it should be remembered that McLaren invested a lot in Lewis from a very young age, so it would be good to see the faith they placed in him, returned by Lewis by staying with the team - perhaps ending his career there.
