I have it the other way around. I question his loyalty (when the going gets tough) because of what he said about Renault in '06. I think that was unprovoked, but with Mclaren you can't say there wasn't a total absence of provocation.
When you provoke a competitive, multi-millionaire sports star with blatant examples of unprofessional favoritism, you're going to get some sh*t in return. Perhaps that is what makes people like Alonso the success they are.
He can win more titles than Fangio and Schumacher combined and his reputation would still be soiled. For many fans there can be no redemption for Alonso. Most people despise him for '07 and '07 alone, although what he did in '06 was even more "wrong" in the sense that there was no justification for his actions/comments.
