in this case he has to put himself together otherwise he/we are in deep sh.t :pray:

hopefully not! :O

thats MTV3:s interpretation of Kimis words in the Pirelli Blogg, but obviusly a good result makes it easier to negotiate...
it means that he hasn't got anything for sure so far :(

I think it sounds promising
I’m sure we’re going to be in a much stronger position next year.

Done :shhh:

Some speculation - again :lol:

They just interviewed Jukka Mildh, YLE's F1-reporter, on tv and he said that he doesn't think Mark Webber will retire today after the last race implying that he might retire.

When he was asked about if Kimi would then take Webber's place, should he retire, Mildh said that it's really strange but he still believes that it's something that is Kimi's own decision and that it's also strange that he still keeps his options open since at some point it will be too late for Kimi to make any decisions.

Summa summarum: According to him it's Kimi who decides what he wants to do - just like Kimi says himself :blink:
To be changed soon - rko281, where are you??? LOL

Some speculation is always nice, but i think for a huge salary and almost no pr days, he still says no to it. :O
He's enjoying rally soo much more! :)

Oi Andreas, the speculation gets hilarious here when something happens :lol:

I'm prepared for either WRC or F1 - if it's something else then it's going to take a while to deal with it :fear:

As long as he's not driving bikes, open wheelers, prototypes, touring cars, trucks, stock cars or nothing at all (don't you dare! :<>: ) I'm okay with his choice :zz:

Mildh makes his opinions based on his manager times. sometimes he is right and has interesting views on things going on but he admires ferrari too much for my taste.
Regarding Kimi he can only speculate..just like us.

Yes but the rumour mill has been stagnated for such a long time that it was about time to put a spin on it again, Apple :lol:

From today's Iltalehti :lol:
According to Räikkönen his future should be solved in the next two weeks. Kimi told in Wales that he would want to continue but that everything is up to money. Therefore the Finn's future is not in his own hands.

When Kimi was asked if he is still going to continue in motorsport, his reply was revealing:

- Well I'm not starting to ski, that's for sure, Räikkönen told.
