Formula 1, in itself, is a niche. Even though in the recent past, the sport has grown meteorically, yet sport is a close-knit community of fans, paddock insiders, and the media. Naturally, whenever a major “cross-over” happens, it becomes a big, big thing. Recently, a certain rumor about Fernando Alonso started doing the rounds. The 2x champion has been a cult classic driver in the eyes of the fans. And if this news has any weight to it, this would be the biggest romantic link the world of F1 has had with pop culture.

The 42-year-old Spaniard has recently been linked to 33-year-old American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. Though nothing has been concretely confirmed yet, fans on the internet aren’t leaving any stone unturned to unearth the truth. However, when things like this happen, any small coincidence is also blown out of proportion sometimes. This time, however, it has led to hilarious results.
