Formula 1 veteran Fernando Alonso is keeping up with Taylor Swift rumors.
The 41-year-old Aston Martin driver shared another TikTok mocking the unsubstantiated claim he was dating the pop superstar.
Alonso wrote “I’m lifting 22s😉” in a video of him lifting weights over the weekend.
At the end of the clip, which is set to Swift’s song “22”, two world champions Swift purposefully winked at the camera.
Fans immediately joined the joke in the comments section, with many praising him for using the “Taylor’s Version” of the track.
“And he’s using Taylor’s version! What a good boyfriend,” one fan comically commented.
“We appreciate Nando using Taylor’s version. 🥰 We love a supportive king,” a second person said.

Others stated that the athlete “had a lot of fun” with the rumor, while another wrote “there was no taynando rumor on my 2023 bingo card”.
Speculation that Swift and Alonso, both recently single, are secretly dating took the internet by storm last month when an anonymous email was posted by gossip Instagram account Deuxmoi.
The hidden item was flagged as just “entertainment” by Deuxmoi and even stated that “some of the emails sent were purely BS”.
“Several Spanish magazines are writing about TS and Spanish F1 driver Fernando Alonso,” the anonymous note said. “According to them, the couple has been seeing each other for a week. Nothing serious as both have been single recently.
Alonso first responded to the rumors with a TikTok video set to the tune of Swift’s hit song “Karma” last week. She scrolls through her phone and winks before looking at the camera in the clip.
The Spaniard wrote “Race week period” in the post, alluding to the “Anti-Hero” singer’s ongoing “Eras Tour”.
Before the Azerbaijan Grand Prix last week, when reporters asked Alonso to detail the dating rumors, coquettishly replied, “I’m not commenting on anything.”
His only connection to F1 performing at the 2016 United States Grand Prix, Swift is single after breaking up with boyfriend of six years, Joe Alwyn. Alonso also returned to the market after breaking up with journalist Andrea Schlager in early April.
“We were lucky enough to have a great time together and it will continue to be, but in a different form of love,” she wrote in an Instagram post at the time.
