I just found the article and decided to share it. I'm just the messenger here, don't shoot me. :P
As much as I'd like him to race in F1 again, I do think it's unlikely he will come back; he doesn't seem to be all that interested in F1 anymore, and I guess he's also a bit out of shape right now for F1 standards. Also, I don't think he would want to be the driver n. 2 in the team.

Anything is possible I suppose and I do think he'd be a good choice, but honestly, at one time I thought this was definitely on the cards but it would have happened before now if it was going to happen. We're also going to need something more than a Bild article.

Silly season has started in earnest then.

Kimi has proved too non comittal for any team to take him seriously. Jumping from F1 to WRC to NASCAR etc...

He's just starting to dabble in stock cars.. I'd be surprised if he pulled the plug completely and went back over to pro open wheel.

Problem is that RBR is Vettel's team nowadays and Kimi is a little too fast and self-centered for playing second fiddle.

Of all teams, Red Bull would be the one for Kimi's return. He, at least, is dear to their porduct.

Lol. The same Kimi that couldn't beat Massa in 2008 and needed his help to win the WDC in 2007. Yep too fast. He must have seen what is happening with Schumacher. He doesn't want to get demolished by his team mate.

i agree Tom, plus Kimi doesn't want to work as hard as they do in F1 these days. Do you remember Kimi at media events? ugly ..
