Fernando Alonso and Jimmie Johnson are up to something.
What that is is anyone’s guess, since the race car drivers didn’t give away much in a teaser video Alonso shared Wednesday on Instagram. In it, they discuss plans for a joint activity that might take place in the United States or Europe, but they don’t give up much else in terms of information.
Adam Stern of Sports Business Journal offers a few interesting theories about what it might be.
Possibilities of what's behind JJ/ALO video include:
âž–Johnson running '19 @24HoursOfLeMans (he's said he wants to do it; '19 race is during NASCAR offweekend; @ZBrownCEO has a team).
âž–Alonso doing @NASCAR test/race; he's curious about NASCAR and followed @DISupdates recently. pic.twitter.com/XazGBhELkd

All we can do is stay tuned for the announcement — whatever it ultimately might be.
