" It&amp;#039;s one of those `Doh!&amp;#039; headlines on a press release that makes you think everyday is April Fools. Former two times F1 Champ, Fernando Alonso, has apparently had his thumbs insured by his personal sponsor, Santander the Spanish banking giant for \u2013 get this \u2013 \u20AC10 million or, in real money, $13.2 million. Apparently, &amp;quot;Alonso&amp;#039;s thumbs are a big symbol as, apart from being essential when driving a Formula 1 car, they represent a sign of victory and that everything is under control and well protected,&amp;quot; according to a Santander statement. Mind you, since Standard and Poors, the rating agency, has just downgraded Spain&amp;#039;s economy to AA rating maybe his thumbs aren&amp;#039;t quite that valuable. No related posts.
