After
negotiations seemed to have broken down for an F1 return with
Renault for 2011,
Kimi Raikkonen appears to be settled on remaining in the World Rally Championship for at least another season. Just who the Finnish pilot will be driving for next year, however, remains a big question mark.
While the former F1 champion could remain with
Citroën, one rumor circulating the paddock places him alongside American stuntman extraordinaire Ken Block in the Monster
Ford World Rally Team. Block is reportedly optimistic on the prospect, but the outfit's funding for next season remains an issue. Raikkonen is sponsored by Red Bull, while Block and his team endorse rival energy drink brand Monster.
Could a star-studded, Taurine-fueled super-team be in the cards for next year's championship? We hope so...
