Two-time Fo💞rmula 1 world champion Fernando Alonso has delayed the publication of his planned autobiography until after his career ends so he can reveal “my own truth of things”.

Alonso’s autobiography, wh🌱ich is titled ‘Racer’, was originally due to be published at the end of 2018 but was delayed after the Spaniard decided to c🐟ontinue racing at events such as the Le Mans 24 Hours, Indy 500 and Dakar Rally.

Having returned to F1 this season with the rebranded Alpine squad following a two-year hiatus from the sport, Alonso has now revealed it💧 will not be released until after he retires. ‘Racer’ currently has a pre-order release date of 30 September 2021.

Speaking in an Instagram live with Alpine ahead of this weekend’s Emili♐a Romagna Grand Prix at Imola, Alonso said: “🌺I've been working on a book for a couple of years already. I planned originally to send it out in 2018 when I left F1.

“And then we postponed it for quite some time now bec💖ause I realised that I kept racing in different categorie🦩s and am now back in F1.

“So I will do it when I stop, and I can tel꧃l my own experiences and my own truth of th🔜ings.

“Because if the book comes out while I'm racing, then maybe it's a little bit strange. So I prefer to finishဣ and then tell my experience in life in motor racin♌g.”

Alonso’s autobiography is expected to address his rivalry and subsequent fallout with Lewis Hamilton at McLaren in 2007, as well as the infamous ’Crashgate’ scandal at the ♌2008 Singapore Grand Prix, which he won after Renault teammate Nelson Piquet Jr deliberately crashed to trigger a Safety Car period.
