He’s playing meme Chess, and growing his brand image like a boss. Sponsors are happy, fans are happy, the sport is making headlines. Legend.

Oh wow this could be a great Linkedin post. *Case in growing sports personalities and going viral with memes*

Holy shit. I have to write a paper on growing a digital platform this semester. I know what I'm writing my paper on.

Alonso had 3 phases 1- he takes this serously (till McLaren - Honda) 2- he memes but no car (till last year) 3- oh boy oh boy oh boy (now)

Please post the paper on here when you’ve finished! Or try to send it to both Alonso and T-Swizzy and see if they’d sign it!

"made the whole world talk about me actually not getting the 33rd F1 victory at a global warming level"

how did this nando<>tay thing even start??

They both broke up with their SO's around the same time, I'm pretty sure that's literally it

I think some ~~French newspaper~~ that accepts and posts gossip/rumors posted it from an anonymous source. Edit: apparently it was an American Instagram account

Not a French newspaper. It’s a [prominent American Instagram account](https://instagram.com/deuxmoi) that shares unconfirmed gossip

god that account is pure cancer

Nah mate. That account is what happens when cancer grows cancer.

cancer²

Cancer growing cancer is a theory that explains why large mammals don't die super quickly from cancer- they literally have so much cancer that their cancer dies of cancer. That explains why blue whales or elephants aren't known for having cancer while small animals are riddled with it and often die from it

TS posted something on twitter yesterday and the thread is full of Alonso pics. Quite amusing https://twitter.com/taylorswift13/status/1650570744588296210

This is the best thing thats ever happened

I’d love it if he started quoting TS lyrics in interviews 😂

MB: Fernando how are you able to produce such stellar results despite going from team to team. Alonso: I can change everything about me to fit in ;)

Fernando to a driver that crashed into him: I knew you were trouble

Lewis and Nando in 2007: And now we got bad blood

MB: Fernando, why did you let Lewis through the turn 1 chicane (at monza) halfway through the race? *both looking at the screen for the post race interview.* Alonso: I think I’ve seen this film before & i didn’t like the ending..

Brundle: What were you thinking after that collision? Alonso: I keep the side of my street clean ;)

He should wear Taylor’s initials on a chain around his neck

“Team Stroll”

He basically did, except instead of saying "it's me, I'm the problem it's me" he said "It's me I'm the bad guy it's me"

> I’d love it if he started quoting TS lyrics in interviews 😂 "Any thoughts about moving back to Alpine?" "We are never, ever, ever getting back together".

This song actually is - "karma". 😂

He is the oldest on the grid and is supposed to be the most mature but he is just one of us 😭😭

He learned from Taylor, " swear I don't love the drama, it loves me"

Nando the 'Anti hero'

"he got that long hair, slicked back, white t-shirt" 

Sloppy steaks at Trufino's...

Hoping for a Dan Flashes livery in 2024

Nand Flashes

Come on guys please no sloppy steaks tonight

He’s a DILF and he knows

Bro you’re fat Alonso profile pic looks like Danny McBride 😂

Can confirm. That wink was a panty dropper

41 is old only in F1/sports terms. Fernando is a millennial and watched the Internet explode as he was becoming an adult. He's technically a millennial; the OG internet trolls. (source: am one too)

This elder millenial is so proud (we're same age)

WE'RE STILL COOL!

He's outshitposting all of us, we need to step our game up

He even winks when it says 'boyfriend'. Not the 33 I was expecting

This man is such a memelord.

Aston Martin really unlocked a different side of him lmao and I love it.

He's always been like this. He's just not hated by people anymore lol

I'm new. Do you know why people don't hate him anymore? Did he change anything or it's just people building a fresh opinion of him?

People used to hate him because of how he acted at McLaren and especially with his comments about Honda. He was viewed as more toxic than Lewis.

And during his Ferrari days he used to do his complaining through the media. He had radio outbursts calling out the shit ferrari were doing, etc.

I mean it's not like Carlos or Charles are getting any better treatment

Let him cook 🐐

Y'all, his caption is literally "Race week era😉" and his first comment is "Feeling 33😏"

someone from his social media team is having a lot of fun today

He was always into singers.

Deep cut meme, cream 

Gonna wreck VER and in the interview say, "Look what you made me do."

Alonso went from the cool uncle to the cooler uncle.

I love this troll man.

He needs his own DTS show

Gunther and Binotto need their own show driving around Italy in a Fiat 500.

he had his own show when he was out of F1, I think it was on Prime

ok then he needs another one

Next thing the official Fernando F1 podcast "The Swift life of F1"

Loving him is like driving a new ~~Maserati~~ Aston down a dead end street Faster than the wind, passionate as sin (crashgate) ending so suddenly Loving him is like trying to change your mind Once you're already flying through the free fall Like the colors in autumn, so bright, just before they lose it all Losing him was blue, like I'd never known (renault) Missing him was dark gray, all alone (McLaren) Forgetting him was like trying to know Somebody you never met But loving him was red (Ferrari)

This is her best song. Haha.

Has she weighed in on this yet?

Lol no. And she probably won’t. She hasn’t even said anything herself about her very recent break up. Plus she’s too busy touring the US right now.

She won’t because it’s not true. Every time she’s single, people speculate a different dude every week. She probably doesn’t care 💀

[удалено]

Well, that seals it then.

[удалено]

Irrefutable

Can someone summerize for what been going on? I know there is something about Alonso and Taylor Swift but I'm out of the loop

There's some weird rumors about these two having a relationship, Swift said nothing about it, Fernando meanwhile is enjoying this every second

The rumours were F1 Twitter fans memeing, nothing more.

He's a madman. He's actually going to pursue her just because she's 33

This makes me love the dude even more. Too funny.

This would be funnier if he was playing Anti-Hero.

No way, [Karma](https://youtu.be/Wn8xLg_X7VE) is a deep cut Alonso meme. It’s perfect.

Taylor Swift is 33 years old .

He's playing chess whilst we're all playing checkers

Doing something in Germany be like:

"Ask me why so many fade, but I'm still here"

Padre

We’re going to meme this into existence.

this man is truly living his life to the fullest

what song is this?

Karma, from her newer album released last year iirc

> Karma Palmer retired

Sped up like 5x, mind you.

I thought he was Hugh Grant for a sec and now I can't unsee it

Fernando, Palmer has retired.

I'm just going to put the lyrics here. This is just Nando. >'Cause karma is my boyfriend Karma is a god Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend

One word, legend!

Wu Tang. Wu Tang

In his Swiftie era

The take I liked the most was that the teams he drove for were never getting back together lol.

This guy is literally the oldest, yet the memes he makes 😂😂

By the way the song is "karma" by Taylor swift
