Default Räikkönen to retire after 2009

Formula One news: 'Räikkönen to retire after 2009' - GPUpdate.net Formula One

Quote:
The Finnish media are reporting that Kimi Räikkönen will be retiring from Formula One at the end this season in order to make way for Fernando Alonso at the Italian team. Paddock rumours have linked the 2007 World Champion with Brawn, although new suggestions point towards a career in rallying.

With Räikkönen having already competed in three rally events this year, latest speculation from the Veikkaaja newspaper of Finland suggests that the Ferrari driver, who turns 30 in October, will be hanging up his F1 helmet for good as Spain's Alonso moves to the Scuderia ahead of 2010.

The reports also explained that Kimi's final year of contract - including payments of an estimated €28m - at Ferrari would be paid for but blocking the driver from joining any other Formula One team in the process. Riku Kuvaja, an 'assistant' of Räikkönen, has allegedly denied Tuesday's hearsay.
Let's see which version of these rumours surrounding Kimi turns true.

^ it doesnt make sense to block him from joining other teams if they want alonso that bad. If hes still gonna rally for FIAT then it makes sense.. otherwise.. i dont see the point.
