Taking this a bit serious aren't they?  :-?

The Brazilians are very passionate about their motorsport heros.

this is the law

Law No. 10,671 of May 15, 2003. Statute of Defense of the Fan.

[...]

CHAPTER XI-A - CRIMES (Included by Law No. 12,299 from 2010).

[...]

Article 41-E. To defraud, by any means, or contribute to the fraud in any way the result of a sport competition: (Included by Law No. 12,299 from 2010).

However is it really classed as defrauding if your quite open and honest about it? I'd say no. Also, should he not have been arrested in 2007 when he moved over for Kimi?
And finally, if they really did do this, then Alonso should be sat in the police car with him, it would be harsh for Massa, but a few years in a brazillian prison for alonso would cheer me right up

Now I would pay (along with many others) to see that happen

I hope Alonso comes off big time and Massa wins, that'd show Ferrari
