Former world champion Fernando Alonso is poised to leave McLaren after negotiating an early release from his contract, BBC Sport understands.
The departure of the Spaniard, who was deposed last month by Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen, is to be announced by McLaren soon, possibly later on Friday.
Talks were ongoing on Friday morning, but Alonso's manager Luis Garcia Abad refused to comment.
Several teams are interested in signing the double champion for 2008.
More soon.
