Is Alonso hinting at an upcoming contract extension with this riddle?

Fernando Alonso seems to have cryptically made it clear to his fans that important news is coming. Alonso's contract has yet to be renewed, so it is likely that we will hear about it in 24 hours.
Many people were surprised to see a Tweet from Alonso on Wednesday morning. The Spaniard wrote the following: "BTV vras nduvrg ddwa. Eno iw giadt gby awa, Q'z xwptbvrg ewqf mn ndlr!!!!" You'd almost think it was a Tweet sent from the pocket, but that's not the case.
BTV vras nduvrg ddwa. Eno iw giadt gby awa, Q’z xwptbvrg ewqf mn ndlr!!!!

Alonso's riddle
Indeed, if you convert this cryptic way into a normal sentence, you suddenly get: 'Soon there will be big news, and to make everyone a bit crazy, I'm telling this in code language.' Esteban Ocon replies in code, but expects a quick response: "I mtb lsu pkmecoyt evpl hdzx sue lpnx yzj'zr enydcagiyv agvatvpg ewln, which means: ''I bet everyone knows immediately what you're going to announce.''
However, Alonso is giving his followers the chance to decipher his riddle, as in a response to Ocon he says the following: Lpi'a fie, wtb'f wep. Iprc'vp vwg 24 lofga gs wzgs vx ofi! = ''Let's wait and see. They have 24 hours to fix it.''
