Now I don't believe this, but then I still don't believe Giggs got SPotY and I've just seen that on TV.

From Pitpass, although with conditions:

Nico Rosberg is set to partner Jarno Trulli at Lotus.

Kimi Raikkonen to Williams.

Genii Capital is undertaking due diligence to buy a 75% stake in the Renault F1 Team.

Giggs? Now that is off the wall.

If Kimi is in the Williams, who gets bumped? Hulkenburg or Barrichello?

Also, who does that leave Mercedes with? Schumacher and Barri. I don't think Frank and Patricks collective pockets are deep enough to run Kimi and Rubens.

Sounds like total arse to me; then again I said the same when Eddie Jordan said Michael would end up in the Benz for 2010.

Takuma Sato's agent speaks of his dissapointment that the Malaysian manufacturer decided not to hire his driver saying 'you don't get more Asian than Taku'.

Off the wall suggestions are never a good idea in F1. Just ask Flavio...

I'm sorry but that has got to be total tosh.

Williams have their drivers all sewn up, Mercedes grabbed Rosberg ages back (and the only other person Merc would want next to him or Schumi is Vettel and as I understand it he's cast iron with Red Bull). Also I can't see Kimi back in F1 again, think he's going to be far happier in WRC in a lower profile.
