I used to be quite an Alonso fan...right until he developed the habit of shooting his mouth off. He had no one tell him to keep his rants...about the team, his engines performance, other drivers or whatever...to himself or behind closed doors.
He was a PR nightmare and it certainly cost him and teams he has driven for.
Which is a shame because he is (was) quite the talented driver especially when winning DWCs in that understeering Renault monster.
Similarly...Someone in Verstappens personal circle should be advising him to stop ranting and be far more circumspect on his car radio and when making media statements...although it may be too late to get a seat at Mercedes...at least any time soon.
