The alleged Alonso-Swift relationship even had everyone joining the bandwagon
When rumors of Alonso dating Swift reached an all-time high, the Aston Martin star took to TikTok to further tease his fans. The 42-year-old uploaded a 5-second video where he is sitting on a chair as Swift’s “Karma” played in the background. The video ended with him winking towards the camera. Furthermore, the caption on the video read, “Race Week Era,” which was a nod to Swift’s Eras Tour. A week later, Alonso uploaded a similar video with his alleged girlfriend’s ’22’ playing in the background.
Following the first video, the Azerbaijan GP took place, where Sky Sports F1’s David Croft could not hold himself back from taking a fun dig at Alonso. The commentator praised Alonso for a “Swift” drive in the Qualifying Session in Baku. Croft added, “He went 4th fastest as if he was driving a getaway car,” which was another reference to Taylor Swift, bearing her 2007 track of the same name in mind. Croft got in a good number of jibes before the day’s racing session came to an end.
