What actually happened to Martin Whitmarsh? I can't remember seeing any official announcement. He just seemed to be pushed quietly out. Where is he now?

I understood Whitmarsh was still running around doing something at McLaren.
Fishing in the pond outside the front?
Ron's version of a garden gnome.

Alonso to Mercedes? The Daimler Chairman has been singing his praises.
http://www.grandprix.com/ns/ns28052.html
The possibility is that Rosberg will be released to make way for Alonso. Alonso has been at Ferrari for 5 years with nothing to show for it, or could he end up at McLaren but Ron is now the boss.
