Alonso shows how to get a head in motor racing

Fernando Alonso (ESP) Toyota Gazoo Racing.

Forget Being John Malkovich, this is just an ordinary day in the life of Being Fernando Alonso!

The Toyota driver might not have quite managed to come out on top in the 6 Hours of Shanghai this weekend, but it's obviously not stopping it going to his head.

You can add your own caption as to what's going through the two-time world champion's mind when he was confronted by his own giant-sized countenance in a paddock signing session for fans this weekend.

And while we're at it, here's a few more pictures of the day from Shanghai International Circuit, which saw Alonso sharing the podium with another popular former F1 driver. Jenson Button finished in third place with SMP Racing.
