Bueno, al parecer el misterio sigue sobre Alonso, acaban de anunciar que se pierde el gran premio de Australia por problemas médicos
Alonso to miss Australian race on medical advice
Fernando Alonso will miss the season-opening Grand Prix in Australia following his testing crash in Barcelona, McLaren confirmed on Tuesday.
Although the team say Alonso is “entirely healthy from neurological and cardiac perspectives”, doctors have advised the Spaniard, who sustained a concussion in a testing accident on February 22, not to compete in the March 15 race.
Alonso’s seat alongside Jenson Button will be filled by the McLaren’s test and reserve driver Kevin Magnussen, who competed in 19 races for the Woking squad last season.
“Having performed an exhaustive series of tests and scans - some of them as recently as yesterday evening - McLaren-Honda driver Fernando Alonso’s doctors have informed him that they find him asymptomatic of any medical issue; that they see no evidence whatsoever of any injury; and that they therefore describe him as entirely healthy from neurological and cardiac perspectives alike,” a statement issued by McLaren read.
“However, Fernando’s doctors have recommended to him that, following the concussion he sustained in a testing accident at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on February 22nd, for the time being he should seek to limit as far as is possible any environmental risk factors that could potentially result in his sustaining another concussion so soon after his previous one, so as to minimise the chances of second impact syndrome, as is normal medical procedure when treating athletes after concussions.
“In order to limit those environmental risk factors, specifically, his doctors have advised that he should not compete in the imminent Australian Grand Prix meeting, which will take place on March 13th, 14th and 15th.”
McLaren say that although Alonso feels fit and well, he has understood and accepted the advice of his doctors, and with their blessing has recommenced his physical training with a view to returning to the cockpit for the second race of the season in Malaysia on March 29.

Re: F1 Melbourne Grand Prix, Australia 2015
Todos son rumores pero muy extraño todo esto, parece muy cierto lo que dicen que se electrocuto y esa fue la verdadera razón del accidente, cosa que en Mclaren jamas van a aceptar por motivos de "seguridad" ya esto paso una vez en Williams hace anos cuando estaban introduciendo el Akers
Martin Brundle says "there's a lot of smoke and mirrors around" Fernando Alonso's testing accident, which led to him being advised to miss the Australian GP.
Although an "exhaustive series of tests and scans" have found that Alonso is "asymptomatic of any medical issue" following his accident, doctors have recommended that he sit out the season-opening race in Melbourne on 15 March.
However, there have been plenty of question marks over the circumstances surrounding the double World Champion's accident.
He crashed his MP4-30 into the wall at the exit of Turn 3 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on 22 February and was airlifted to hospital, resulting in him spending three nights in hospital.
Although Alonso and McLaren insisted he is "completely fine", it was decided that he should miss the final pre-season test, but they seemed pretty confident he would be fit for the Australian GP.
However, the Spaniard was on Monday ruled out of the race on medical advice, but former F1 driver and Sky F1 commentator Brundle was left with more questions.
"Something is amiss. Something doesn't add up. When he missed the test, I assumed it meant he would miss the first race," he told Telegraph Sport.
"It's a very strange situation. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors around. We get back to the real crux of this in the first place: did he have an event that meant he went and hit the wall, or was it hitting the wall? Is it cause or is it effect? We don't know. Everybody is a little bit coy about it so something isn't quite right."
Meanwhile former McLaren driver Gerhard Berger is confident Alonso will come back stronger.
"Crashes are part of the game in F1," he told BBC F1. "Fernando is such an experienced driver, he will deal with it in a good way and I don't think it's going to have any effect on him. He will be ready to go racing again."
