Nice of the old smoothie to lighten the mood of everyone this weekend. Title rivals poke fun at Alonso's waxed legs In a bit of good humour or championship finale-needle, or both, Fernando Alonso's title rivals could not hide their grins in Abu Dhabi.
Lewis Hamilton admitted that he and Mark Webber noticed on Thursday that the Ferrari driver was sporting smooth and shiny legs in the Yas Marina paddock.
"I'm surprised how Fernando was able to take the pain of having his legs waxed," smiled Hamilton, who at McLaren in 2007 clashed memorably with his former teammate.
"Mark pointed it out and was asking how far it goes up," he added.
"I was like, 'Wow, they're shiny'," said Hamilton.
He admitted that Alonso, who is a keen cyclist, took the jibes in good humour.
