FERNANDO ALONSO – THUMBS

If you’re into race cars and professional racing, then you probably know who Fernando Alonso is. He’s regarded as one of the best Formula One race car drivers of all time. And his love for the rush of high-speed driving started from go-kart racings at the age of three. But it was during his teens when Fernando finally had his lucky break after bagging the 1999 Nissan European Open. Fernando Alonso has driven for several famous race car brands over the years, including Minardi and Renault.

It was during his time with Ferrari, where the famous thumb insurance policy-signing happened. Surprisingly, it was part of his contract with the world-class car brand, which amounted to $13.3 million. Now that’s a big thumbs up from us. Even though that’s a large amount of insurance money, we and all of his other fans still hope that he will never need that money in the future.
