Re: Raikkonen to return to F1 in 2012

Feel its about time the likes of Ruebens, Trulli, De la rosa hang up their boots and F1 teams look at new guns for the long term.

Re: Raikkonen to return to F1 in 2012

Raikkonen seems to have got over the sore wrist without event.
see- Kimi Raikkonen feels ready for F1 return - The Times of India
Reading into his interview he seems confident and really interested about comeback, compared to his older ones where he would give bland one liners.

Re: Raikkonen to return to F1 in 2012

Looks like Kimi is enjoying his return. He is pounding on the laps at Jerez and is in attack mode. Cutting the grass on the way to the pits.

I love 2012 already.

Re: Raikkonen to return to F1 in 2012

Great news for kimi fans,he has set the fastest time for lotus at final pre season tests - barcelona today and a decent overall race simulation time!Now we have to wait for australian GP to know whether others might be sandbagging.Anyway kimi and lotus seem good to challenge atleast for some podiums this year.

Wasn't he part of Ferrari' pit crew? He was always in the pit camera frame during a race.

Re: Raikkonen to return to F1 in 2012

A brilliant note by Peter Windsor on Kimi' preference for a lighter and precise steering and how Lotus is working on it.
