Fernando Alonso has insisted that he has NOT signed any contract to race for McLaren Honda in 2015 amid intense internet speculation to the contrary. It was reported earlier this week that the Spaniard who looks set to leave Ferrari at the end of the season was on the verge of signing a 'two plus one' contract to race alongside Kevin Magnussen next season.

However speaking ahead of this weekend's Brazilian Grand Prix Alonso stated that he remains undecided about his Formula One future. The Spaniard stated he remains 

'Undecided' and is considering what is the best decision for his career. However Alonso has already stated that he has 'an idea' about what he would like to do. Alonso is currently in 6th place in the championship equal on points with Sebastian Vettel, the man expected to replace him at Ferrari next season.

The McLaren team have confirmed that they will not announce their 2015 driver line-up until the build up of the season finale in Abu Dhabi in two weeks time.
