Hamilton and Alonso hold peace talks

LEWIS HAMILTON and Fernando Alonso held clear-the-air talks yesterday.

In an effort to avoid a repeat of the events that unfolded during a turbulent Hungarian Grand Prix weekend, McLaren boss Ron Dennis ordered a crisis meeting at a hotel in Istanbul.

Dennis was a furious and frustrated figure at the Hungaro ring as his two star drivers became embroiled in a battle on and off the track that sullied the name of his team.
