McLaren chief Martin Whitmarsh has refused to rule out the chances of Fernando Alonso returning to the team in 2014.
Whitmarsh revealed that the team could afford Alonso and also said that the team will be delighted to have him back.
“We could afford to bring Alonso here next year. I shouldn’t be stoking wild rumors of his return in 2014 but would we welcome him back, be delighted to have him back in the team? Of course we would,” Whitmarsh told Guardian.
The rumors were further fueled by Alonso’s continuing frustration at Ferrari after he said that he is used to being replaced by Red Bull at the top.
“It has been the same for the past four years and now we are the fourth fastest team in the field. But we have been able to fight for the title three teams, so we can be proud,” he said.
