F1 fans around the world have been buzzing ever since rumors spread that two-time world champion Fernando Alonso could potentially be dating American pop star, Taylor Swift. The rumors of the two dating each other first emerged on Duexmoi, an anonymous gossip page on Instagram.
Since then, some Spanish websites have also reported that the two have been seeing each other for a week. While there is no certainty over these rumors, they have spread like fire all across social media.
What made these rumors gather even more steam is that Alonso himself responded to them. Even though many fans have been buzzing over these links, there is one fan who believes that Swift would have preferred to date Daniel Ricciardo over the Spanish driver.
