Apparently Kimi visited the factory at Wantage last week. Food for thought.

Agreed. If Williams want an ex world champ then he's the most affordable?

Unless he has changed his attitude to development he would be a very bad choice for Williams

He's pulled out of WRC anyway, would be good to see him back in F1.

When does his Ferrari deal end? They could pay him $50k a year and Ferrari will meet the difference..

yes

He's made an obscene amount of money already driving for Ferrari. From what I read in Autosport a few weeks ago he has had enough of rally, not overly sold on Nascar, and very much views F1 as unfinished business.

It would be fantastic to see him back. One of the great natural talents.

Good call.

That or Sauber perhaps. His old stomping ground.

Would love to see him at Mercedes opposite Schumi. At least a half decent car then.

He just got kicked out of the WRC championship for failing to drive in australia because he didn't want to travel, can't see that the rigours of an F1 season would suit him better.

He didn't want to travel to Australia to try and beat Mathew Wilson...

Slurms does make a good point though.

He's motivation is in question.

Don't forget Ralf Schumacher, he'd cost even less.

i can only see him coming back if it's fun. there's probably very little fun running around with the STR and team lotus cars.
