After being touted to move from Ferrari (though he still was under contract with them for 2010) to a return to the McLaren Mercedes F1 team for 2010, all that appears to have gone up in smoke. Former F1 World Champion (2007) Kimi RÄIKKÖNEN has joined the ranks of the Junior Citroen team in the World Rally Championship for 2010 leaving the F1 circus behind. Will he become WRC World Champion, or fade into oblivion? How long before he returns, if he returns, to F1?
After the snow covered WRC Rally of Sweden, Kimi finished outside the Top 10 (well 35th to be precise) due to an altercation with a bank of cunningly disguised snow. Is that a sign of things to come?
