Fernando Alonso and McLaren will not make the same mistakes that led to an acrimonious split last time they were together in Formula 1, reckons his former team-mate Lewis Hamilton.Alonso's switch to McLaren - and the identity of his team-mate - is set to be confirmed in the next few days, with the Woking-based team having delayed an original plan to reveal its line-up before the final race of the season.
AUTOSPORT understands that the final decision on Alonso's team-mate will be taken at a board meeting on December 4, although it is not clear when an official announcement will be made.
Although Alonso's last spell at McLaren in 2007 ended prematurely after a year when he spectacularly fell out with then team boss Ron Dennis, the team is confident their relationship can operate better this time.
Hamilton, whose equal status at McLaren seven years ago fuelled the clashes between Alonso and Dennis, firmly believes the situation will be different.
