Fernando Alonso has bid Formula 1 goodbye and his farewell was nothing short of spectacular, with Hamilton, Vettel and Alonso himself indulging in a few donuts on the main straight.
It was quite a sight for everyone involved, seeing three multiple world champions put on a show for the world in order to conclude the 2018 season.
While, the video of Alonso, Hamilton and Vettel doing the donuts together went viral on social media, there weren’t too many of just Alonso dishing out those extra special donuts for the fans.
Here’s the video of all three drivers performing the donuts:

Do you see Alonso returning to F1 next season or some time later or will he find solace elsewhere in motorsport?
