Taking bets: Alonso to Toyota in 2009

I believe Kimi cannot wait for 2009 rules as you see he regularly complains since 2005 esp about the crappy rules they brought in mainly concerning the front wings etc (can't follow). He loves a challenge, and loves to race as well as being on the top step. I agree with Domenicali that he is as motivated as ever esp with Ferrari.

Kimi stays at Ferrari through 2009 then retires (after 3 straight championships?? ), Alonso joins Ferrari after his two years at Renault (joining Ferrari in 2010) while Felipe still plays second fiddle.

Fits with Kimi's dual personna: superfast F1 driver by day; club-hopping wild man by night. Seriously, he strikes me as a guy who would reach the point where he'd be satisfied with his achievements in F1 (2 or 3 WDC might do it) and could then move on, as opposed to the DC / Barichello philosophy of hanging on and on and on.
