Apart from the usual where-is-Taylor comments, there was another interesting trend that refreshed quite some memories. Taylor’s former rumored beau, Fernando Alonso, is in Miami for the Grand Prix. While the Aston Martin driver and the singer’s link-up was never confirmed, it didn’t stop the fans from poking fun at the coincidence. F1 fans were tagging Alonso, poking fun at the driver, and asking him to respond.

The rumors of the two-time F1 championship winner started brewing back in April of last year after Taylor had just broken up with English actor Joe Alwyn. While the news remained unverified by either star, the pop star used Aston Martin in one of the lyrics of her latest album. Swifties were quick to notice this and reignited discourse about the past link-up rumors, even causing Alonso to jump on the train!

The Grammy winner’s latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, was riddled with references to Kelce and also her past boyfriends. One such song titled, ‘imgonnagetyouback,’ considered to be about Matty Healy, had a line that caught the attention of the F1 arena. Swifties were left guessing whether the lyrics, “I’m an Aston Martin you drove straight into the ditch/ then ran and hid,” was a nod to Alonso.
The revived buzzing about the rumored relationship reached the F1 driver, who decided to utilize the fans’ curiosity. Alonso was featured in a promotional video for Aston Martin, with Swift’s song playing in the background. The 42-year-old is seen scrolling on his iPad, making a shushing sign at the camera.
