    Now it seems they (Räikkönen & his managers) might actually be reconsidering that, according to some media. Despite of being paid a few millions less and having to do some PR, I think a seat at Mercedes would probably be Kimi's best option if he still wants to race for more than just a hobby. If he takes a year off of F1, there's no coming back in an even somewhat competitive team in 2011. And even if he's shown some talent on gravel with an S2000 car, I doubt there's a chance of him challenging the "real" rally drivers on WRC level.

    Walter Rohrl?

    But seriously, I will really find that unfortunate if Kimi moves to Brawn (Merc) having previously passed over McLaren.

    It will be interesting to see if McLaren can build a car that suits the most aggressive and smoothest drivers on the grid.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even try very hard, I'm expecting to see their car be built for Hamilton again and Button will have to try and adjust to it. I'm sure he's a good business for the team though, apparently he was rather cheap and surely a full British team with two latest champions looks good.

    his spokeswoman has already denied this rumour.

    the sport has moved on since his departure. and he wouldnt ever drive for a team other than ferrari if he were to return. besides. he has only his reputation to lose, and nothing to prove.

    No word on the Lotus drivers yet?

    all we need is for heidfeld to move to mercedes, and then there's very little else to care about other than the filling up of less competetive seats.

    BMW has sold the team back to Peter Sauber cancelling its plans to hand the team over to Qadbak.

    A good decision I think we'll all agree.

    The sale is based on the fact that the team must obtain a 2010 entry, otherwise, no deal.
    Someone must talk to Bernie and Jean.

    Apparently the Qadbak takeover had been headed by a convicted fraudster. I wonder how much BMW knew they were potentially getting into with that one.

    As for the rumours, Peter Sauber has announced his personal list of drivers to negotiate with - Nick Heidfeld, Jarno Trulli, Pedro De La Rosa, Kamui Kobayashi and Vitaly Petrov, with the latter being a very good news for me

    Kobayashi/Petrov would be my pick.
