ABU DHABI -- Fernando Alonso says he wants to be "invisible" until his farewell Formula One weekend is done and dusted.
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is Alonso's last before leaving the championship, which he is doing to focus on other opportunities. He will complete the World Endurance Championship with Toyota next season and contest his second Indy 500 in May.
There has been a lot of attention given to the two-time world champion this weekend. He was front and centre in Thursday's first drivers' press conference and the Yas Marina circuit has painted and decorated and renamed its drivers' briefing room in his honour.
