Fernando Alonso's agent has denied reports that the former Formula One world champion was involved in a plane crash in Kenya at the weekend.
The Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera had reported that the Renault driver had escaped unhurt after being in a plane crash in Malindi, Kenya.
It was reported that Alonso and his family were in the process of taking off around 18:00 on Sunday when the private jet touched an airport building and damaged a wing.
However, his agent Luis Garcia Abad has rubbished the claim.
"It seems that the plane took a blow while they were parking it," said Luis Garcia Abad. "Fernando wasn't even inside the aircraft.
"We didn't give it the slightest importance and because of that this commotion surprises us. It doesn't even qualify as an accident."
The two-time world champion was in Kenya for a New Year's Eve party being hosted by Renault boss Flavio Briatore.

marnio, I would like to seperate myself from the masses criticising you on this thread. My hat goes off to you sir, and I stand and applaud. Not because you are right, you are a fool as all before me have suggested. I applaud you as finally you have come up with some new @#$% to peddle instead of just rehashing the same ridiculous posts over and over again. And thankfully its much shorter and easier to ignore. So congratulations. I look forward to your next new comment that actually relates to the story, should be due come the end of February.
My god you're an idiot.
It amazes me that you can actually post something on the internet - perhaps you have one of those computers that were developed for retards.
Unless, of course, you are Spanish or Italian. That would explain everything.
marino,who stole the secrets from Ferrari? A Ferrari employee but don't let the facts get in the way of your biased opinion. Massa was the best Ferrari driver in 2008 and Hamilton was the best Maclaren driver.They were the best two drivers in the championship. It is now 2009 and genuine F1 fans will be looking forward another great season. Most of the drivers in F1 are fierce competitors and I would not have it any other way. Have a Happy New Year marino from peru and for the sake of your health, chill out!!!

News story here on Yahoo .. Alonso walks into hanger door .. plane OK
who cares about alonso idont massa to win world title in 2009
Looks like marnio is going for the record in "thumbs down".
Nice one son!
Rubbish! It was obviously Raikkonen not McLaren who was involved. Having discovered Alonso is staying with Renault, He changed his mind at the last minute.
This report in the Italian press ranks among 'Carlos Slim buys Honda' and 'Alonso to drive for Ferrari'!
why does marnio from keep singing the same tune hamilton won ferrari lost and Peru cant produce any decent sportsmen or women so he needs to get his head from up his own @#$% and get a life maybe a sportsman
marnio talks such clap @#$% im sure he lives in a world of his own or he lives on his own much the same thing if he looks at the whole picture then massa should never of been given the extra points in the previoue race or does he think that the sun shimes out of ferraris rear end or is he just stiring it to wind everyboby up as hes got nothing sensable to say
typically british
Anyone else unable to get onto the Dakar link?
invalid comment!!! @#$%!!
To throw Marino in a mental asylum would do a great disservice to the men and women in that institution.

I'm sorry but this website deserves as much criticism as anyone for perpetrating the crash part of the story with the previous headline. All simply to pull people in and generate site traffic. I wouldn't mind so much if they were misinformed at source, but the previous article even said by the second paragraph it was a minor incident. This site is turning into the Daily Mail of sports reporting.
MARNIO NO ONE READS YOUR @#$% YOU HALF WIT
Marino - you are a total !!!!
i rest my case your honour - no more evidence needed
A YOUNG ventriloquist was doing a show in Dundee.
With his dummy on his knee, he started going through his
usual dumb blonde jokes, when a blonde in the second row stood
on her chair and started shouting:
"I've heard enough of your stupid blond jokes", she screamed.
"What makes you think you can stereotype women in that way?
What does the colour of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being? It's people like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community and from reaching our full potential as people. It's all because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against not only blondes, but women in general - and all in the name of humour."
The embarrassed ventriloquist began to apologise,
whereupon the blonde yelled, "You stay out of this. I'm talking
to that little @#$% MARNIO on your lap."
why wont this site let me type what a little thingy that ,marino, is ??
