Where is Kimi racing next year?

Post

There's been a lot of speculation about where is Kimi Raikkonen racing next year. Some people say he'll go to Brawn, McLaren, continue at Ferrari or even retiring... so, what do you know? it seems that some people in this forum know true information about F1... which is the true?

We are not any better at speculating than anyone else.

If it is a technical inference you require, then we are likely the right ones to ask.

We read the same news sites as anyone else, and aggregate our info the same way as anyone else.

Like Kimi says, he has a contract or 2010.

JT is partly correct, he's going to Nascar, but he will race the new Saab-Koenigsegg ethanol-burner!

Kimi still has a contract with Ferrari next year I cant see Ferrari letting him go it would cost to much to get him out of the contract.

Will Ferrari want a cheater in there race car?

Japanese Grand Prix Suzuka?**
Brazilian Grand Prix Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, Interlagos, Sao Paulo
Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Yas Island
Seriously guys, why?
- He has a contract with Ferrari for 2010
- He's doing rather well lately (best scorer on the grid since/including Hungary)
- He wants to continue

Why would Ferrari loose a heap of money to replace a great driver with another great driver who may or may not do well in Ferrari, and has a trace of scandals behind him?

Well its not over yet, we haven got to the bottom of the crashgate, maybe he plan the whole thing, whether if he was in it i dont know yet, but if he was thats cheating and there is no other way of looking at it.

if he is not cheating then and lets not forget who exposed spygate, because he was not given preferential treatment.
same with the singapore race, he was given preferential treatment, with or without the knowledge of it.

i guess you can quantify preferential treatment as not cheating, but i allow me to rephrase, alonso is "unsportsmen like"

I'd love him to be in a McL to do a head to head with Lewis. Solid iceman against grinning starlet. Would be interesting!

I second this! I was gonna say something similar but you beat me to it by a few hours at least :D
