Mar.26 (GMM) A Ferrari spokesman has plainly dismissed rumours that a deal is already in place to put Fernando Alonso alongside Kimi Raikkonen at the Italian team in 2009.
"There is no arrangement at all with Fernando and Ferrari," he is quoted as saying by The Times.
"We have two drivers already contracted for next year -- Mr Kimi Raikkonen and Mr Felipe Massa."
Renault boss Flavio Briatore would also not be drawn on the speculation, despite his driver, Alonso, claiming that the rumours linking himself and Sebastian Vettel with Massa's seat were "logical".
Briatore, though, said it is a "waste of time to get involved in hypothetical daydreams", according to the news agency AP.
"Fernando is a great sportsman who will always give his best, and rumours I never comment on," he added.
