F1 champion Raikkonen - coefficient 30

Thursday, 18.11.2010 at 11.59

A betting company hasn't ruled out the return of the Iceman.

LOL - The text under the photo is: Say hello, wave goodbye. Is F1 afterall simmering under Räikkönen's hat?

A big international betting company doesn't exclude the possibility that Kimi Raikkonen would return behind the steering wheel of a F1-missile - and be victorious. They offer coefficient 30 for the Iceman's championship which is the 10th smallest.

According to the betting company Raikkonen's championship is even more possible than Heikki Kovalainen's. Heikki isn't even among the ten smallest coefficients and you get his coefficient only when asked separately.

Sebastian Vettel (3.2), Fernando Alonso (3.5) and Lewis Hamilton (3.5) got the smallest coefficients.

IL IL
LOL. It's pleasing to see something like that, even if I don't think he'll ever get back. I feel sorry for Heikki though.

wolfie,

how can we ever get mad at you? u r the moderator and can "fire" our butts out of here :lol: :fear:

I am now convinced Kimi will remain in rally since DM said webder will be back with the team next year, plus there are no other decent seats left, and those other "available" seats require drivers to be paid drivers! This does not look good for F1 at all.
Off-Topic: show
Isn't it amazing to know the extent of control Fonzi has in team Ferrari that he can also control Massa's pit strategies? This gives me a glimpse of how some strategic people in the team could manipulate things to make kimi look lackluster and Massa the hero just to validate their decision. And now, people conveniently say Massa is the pits so by comparison, kimi is worse than Alonso bla bla bla. Can't wait for the next season to start - so I can "support" the red team again!

please, let it be true :pray:


Google translation
Another year at Citroen

Kimi Raikkonen and Citroen will have agreed at last, after many negotiations.

Motorsport Magazin.com - rumors that the contract with the Citroen junior team in the bag and be in the upcoming season with the DS3 WRC at the start go Raikkonen. The Finn is also dispute the 2011 season with co-driver Kaj Lindstrom, who has already come out for another year of Raikkonen.

Nor is an official announcement on the part of Citroen, but should the rumors prove true, then stand Raikkonen before exhausting weeks. The 31-year-old must continue to develop new cars and also to prepare themselves well to start the season.

I hope they are all not reporting from that Spanish site because I have no idea how reliable that site is, never come across it before and now suddenly they've scooped everyone else?

Probably it's too early :blush: but I hope Kimi will be on the Monte Carlo Rally :pray:
Geraldine Filliol concluded by announcing that all stages would be broadcast in their entirety live on Eurosport - amounting to about 12 hours of live programming - and she detailed the extra provisions made by Eurosport in their coverage of this event.
