FERNANDO ALONSO has fuelled rumours that he is dating Taylor Swift after a recent online post.
The F1 legend shared a hilarious video on TikTok of him scrolling on his phone while sitting down.
In the clip, the Aston Martin driver looks up and gives the camera a cheeky wink and smile.
During the song Karma by Taylor Swift, 33, is playing in the background.
Alonso, 41, commented on the video “Feeling 33”, which is thought to be a reference to the singer’s song “22”.
The caption for the post says “Race week era”, along with a winky emoji in another reference to Swift’s current Eras tour.

The Spaniard was first linked with romantic ties to Swift after an post on the DeuxMoi Instagram account last week that quoted an anonymous email.
It read: “A couple of Spanish magazines have been posting about TS [Swift] and Spanish F1 driver Fernando Alonso.
“According to them, the couple has been seeing each other for a week now. Nothing serious tho since they are both recently single.”
However, the account did list the post in a section titled “for entertainment purposes only” and joined it with the disclaimer that “some of the emails posted are complete BS”.

But this did not stop fans from getting excited by Alonso’s response.
One TikTok user commented: “Oh my god Taylor X Fernando confirmed????”
A second wrote: “Fernando please confirm or deny, was mastermind (A song by Swift) written about you.”
A third said: “Never did we think in our Wildest Dreams this would happen.”
Swift split from her boyfriend Joe Alwyn earlier this month at a similar time that Alonso announced that he had separated from girlfriend, Andrea Schlager.
The former couple met in the F1 sports paddock.
Alonso said in a statement: “We wanted to tell you that our relationship as a couple ended.
“We have been lucky enough to share a fantastic time together, and it will continue to be so, but on a different form of affection.
