It is no secret that there is no love lost between former McLaren teammates Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton. The Spaniard often makes digs at the Briton, but in light of the latter's decision to join Scuderia Ferrari in 2025, Alonso had some surprisingly positive things to say.
It may be remembered that Alonso and Hamilton partnered up in McLaren back in 2007, When Alonso had just come off double Drivers' World Championship victories. Hamilton was just a rookie, and the two of them rubbed each other the wrong way. Alonso has always been vocal about the friction between them, and recently declared that while there is mutual respect, they will never build a friendship.
