Fernando Alonso claims he has alr🌊eady rejected 60 per cent of offers he has received for a 2018 drive, with ✤the remaining 40 per cent “still on the table” as he considers his future with McLaren in Formula 1.

Two-time world champion Alonso has been struggling for the past thrꦺee years with McLaren thanks to conဣtinual issues with the Honda power units used by the team, limiting the Spaniard to just two points finishes through the first 11 races of the 2017 season.

Alonso is now the focal point of F1’s driver market ‘silly season’ for 2018 with his McLaren contract up at ꦰthe end of the 🎶season, and has long made his desire to be back winning races clear.

Fresh speculation at Spa suggested that Williams may offer Alo💧nso a seat for 2018, and while he did not address this rumour directly, he confirmed that a number of propositions had been made in recent months.

“I will have a think and take decisions in tꦬhe next month,” Alonso sai෴d.

“Definitely I have 🥃some offers, and I ℱdid have offers in June, in July, in August.

“60 per cent of the🎉m I said no to already, and the other 40 per cent are still on the table.”

Relying Alons♑o’s maths is accurate, he will have therefore received at least five offers for a race seat in 20🌊18, although it is unclear whether this is limited solely to F1.

Following Ferrari's confirmation of Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen for 2018 earlier this week and Mercedes' expected extension of Valtteri Bottas' contract, Alonso's options for next year are limit꧋ed, particꦅularly if his heart is set on being in a race-winning car.
