Here in Finland its already on the radio news. Tho they say its not confirmed yet, but they wait it to be either today or tomorrow.

BBC news just said (and they don't normally talk about F1 in morning news) that contract was signed Monday evening and will be announced at any time.

I read this situation that Kimi was holding back for a very long time trying to give a chance to Lotus to finalise all the deal to secure next year finances and specialists (because he would prefer to stay and win with them). If he actually signed it means that for now Lotus has nothing and it is not nice for that team, but Kimi has a right to try and get better variant. Whether it is better or not we will know next year...

Ferrari will announce Kimi Raikkonen on Wednesday, 8 pm UK time.
Raikkonen's €20 mill. salary at Ferrari will be covered by Shell. His rallying backed by Fiat. Contract is for 2 years + 1 year option.
Part of the deal is that Mark Slade will move from Lotus to Ferrari as Kimi Raikkonen's engineer.

that would be awesome! thanks, appletree

I guess its going to happen 'cos the stupid Dr Marko has started his mind games already " title="mad" />
saying ALO/RAI will tear each other apart.

I hope Marko will live to regret his pushing of not signing Kimi. " title="girl" />

But I thought LdM said drivers' decision on Wednesday. " title="hmm" />

Marc Priestley doesn't know if Kimi will be there, but interview is very interesting

there's supposedly a promise made to the Hulk prior to Hungary which needs to be solved?
Basically it's as if Ferrari has four contracted drivers at the moment, Alonso, Massa, Kimi and the Hulk.
