Referring to the Spanish driver’s Barcelona testing crash, Paola Saluzzi’s (pictured above) offending tweet during the Chinese grand prix weekend said Alonso had now recovered his memory to realise he is “arrogant” and an “imbecile”.

We reported that the ‘tweet’, which was removed and for which Saluzzi apologised, caused Alonso to refuse to speak to Sky Italia at the track last weekend. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Sky has now suspended the female journalist.

The sports newspaper said Sky has not officially confirmed the news, but Saluzzi reportedly did not appear in her usual place on a SkyTG24 programme this week.

Her colleague Gianluca Semprini is reported to have said: “I greet with affection Paola Saluzzi — see you in a few days”.
