I'd like to see Raikkonen back but in a decent car. He's one of those guys that when things are not going well he seems to loose interest.

Every Raikonnen rumour before was purely " oh this person moving from that team for 2010,2011 etc maybe Raikonnen will come back,

and it was a bit like....please stfu lol.

This time we have a confirmed visit to Williams, neither side has publicly said its all a load of rubbish, and raikonnen has been reported over the course of a few days in seperate articles as interested in returning.

This rumour definitely holds the most water of all of the ones ive ever seen, but id like to see him return to Williams only if they have a point worthy car for 2012.

There's also a rumour that Sutil visited the Williams factory but both sides are denying this.

Well, guess we just have to wait and see.. i hope Kimi returns, but i doubt he will. WIlliams is not a bad team to return to, and it seems like they are re-forming the team... maybe new investors or a new economic model.........

Hopefully Kimi can return and at least run for points or podiums.

Came out fighting indeed.

Wonder if Adam Parr has budgeted for Kimi's Magnums...

He thinks about that but a Finnish newspaper says that returning to F1 in 2012 is not one of Kimi's plans.

Williams going with Renault engine for 2012 would be deciding factor for Kimi's return to Formula 1 if rumor is true. Should make for interesting racing, as 25% of the grid would be former winners of WDC.
