Raikkonen's return to me is just a rumor. He won't come back easily, and Red Bull are not really the ones who want him. His era in McLaren was filled with reliability problems (They were all Newey-designed cars). Newey will not let him come to Red Bull for preventing the team from having reliability problems of the past again

@31 he should be as good as any of the race winning drivers there, but for kimi to be interested he needs a competitive car. With MSC occupying the last half decent/capable car, Kimi has few options within f1.
I don't think there's a bat's chance in hell Merc will take him. I thought McLaren (minus the PR days) would be a great choice for him, but hiring Kimi would be tantamount to the always-politically-correct McLaren saying Kimi is better than Button (not that I would argue). Ferrari paid him off for 17 million or something, so fat chance. Renault's Kubica seat is a far shot, though I'd love to see him there.
Maybe Raikkonen replacing Webber though? I think it would be good for Red Bull and Vettel's image; if Vettel were to consistently beat, or at least equal, someone of Raikkonen's talent.
It was made know a while back that Webber could have a seat at Renault if he wanted it. Looked a good option earlier in the season. Not so much now. He might get sick of things pretty quick if there are many more team orders incidents though.
