Alonso move annoys Ferrari
'It doesn't please me' Montezemolo

(GMM) Luca di Montezemolo has added his criticism to Fernando Alonso's recently announced switch for 2007 to McLaren.

Like F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone, the Italian president of Ferrari does not agree with the tactic of announcing a deal to change teams more than a year before he'll even try the new cockpit.

Montezemolo might also be annoyed that the Alonso deal seems to indicate that Kimi Raikkonen is indeed bound for the red squad.

''It doesn't please me at all,'' Luca replied to a question about the move.

Perhaps referring specifically to Renault, he added: ''It can only harm the motivation and the work of the entire team. I think it is not morally right.

''Ferrari would never behave like that.''
