Kimi Raikkonen
Posted by ipswich2007
I still think there are enough reasons to watch next season, allthough Kimi won't be participating. I'm very curious about Fernando Alonso and Nico Rosberg!

But WRC.com is something else then a Finnish broadcasting channel. It's rather easy really, Kimi is backed by Red Bull for ages already, Red Bull sponsors Citroën, what ever you think of Kimi, him going to the WRC will help the decreasing populairty of the sport we have seen in the last few years.

True, but now it is finally confirmed that Kimi wont drive 3rd car of Citroen WRC factory team (unlike it have been told till now by MTV3), but possibly in their junior team if Kimi/RedBull(/MTV3
) pay all costs.
Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

Like I have with JPM and Nascar, I will take more notice on the WRC next year if Kimi does race. It's a shame the coverage isnt great though. UK veiwers get it on Dave I think!

Kimi's WRC move confirmed:
“I always wanted to compete in rally, especially in the World Rally Championship at some point in my career," said Raikkonen. "Thanks to Red Bull, I have the opportunity to drive the best car of the series with the Citroen C4. This is a new but very exciting challenge. For the moment we have a one-year contract and we will see how it goes for the future. I am really looking forward to testing the car and taking the start of the first rally.”
