Brucie will be pulling his pants down: Raikkonen bids for 2011 Renault seat

Amusingly they're saying Petrov may be a better choice.

[Dudley]

He probably is, I'm not sure Kimi cares enough to come back and be any good at all and there's a lot you can do to make the car faster with the probably $15m difference in cost between the two of them.

[myoozikk]

If Renault can deliver a strong car next season having Kubica & Kimi as drivers would be awesome!

They would have 2 drivers consistently bringing in points. I've rather have Kimi than a rookie in my team.

[layten]

It would be good to see Kimi back in F1, well.. as long as it is not Cornetto Kimi.

[Christoph84]

I don't get the Kimi F1 love. He had a stinking attitude towards the end and he clearly couldn't give two shits about the sport. Why would coming back in a slower car alter this? Why not stay in rallying with the new regs next year?

I've heard that the only reason that the contract is stalling in WRC is because Monster are after him, they always planned a two car team with Block...

Not official yet, but I guess that's just a matter of days:

Heidfeld to replace de la Rosa from Singapore

Confirmed

There's no doubt he's fast, but you can't but help wonder how much Citreon are getting back from that deal? how many times has he stuffed the car into the nearest solid object? there's a years worth of 'crash' material from him alone this season.

[JPR]

Really glad to see Heidfeld back, one of my favourite drivers and to be honest I'd rather see him in the Renault next season than Kimi.

[Sigourney Beaver]

Confirmed

Get THE FUCK in!!!

"BBC considering axing Legard"

No longer on a charge?

GET THE FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK OUT!!! :D

[JohnC]

Please note: the description of Legard as 'popular' is the Mail's and not PF1's.

[JPR]

Finally, wonder if they might consider switching Legard back to radio and bringing Croft in would be my preference, Charlie Cox wouldn't be bad though I like him in the MotoGP.

[AnimeExpert2003]

The news that time may be be nigh for this man right here pleases me greatly.

:OMG: :OMG:

[Snowman]

That's only half the battle though. Who would they replace him with? Crofty would get my vote but I doubt that'll happen.

[layten]

I keeed I keeed!

[mexos]

Tbh I'd gladly accept James Allen back instead of Leg.

[Petey]

Reeeeeally?

[morcs]

Awesome stuff.

I'm probably the only one but I wouldn't have a problem with it being Allen. I wonder what Brundle's opinion of Allen is.

[exwhyzed]

A shot in the arm for those of us that don't like him. The rumours will be coming thick and fast now.

[dayte]

Time to bring back the legend methinks

[exwhyzed]

THE BATTLE HAS BEEN JOINED!

[Snowman]

Am I alone in thinking that Allen was absolutely fine until Lewis Hamilton arrived on the scene?

[myoozikk]

Legard: ON A CHAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGEEEEE!!!!1!1!

Brundle: The race hasn't started yet.

Legard: CCCCCHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGGGEEEEEE!!

[Dudley]

Swap Croft and Legard, problem solved.

[dayte]

McClaren from McClaren, Red Bull from Red Bull.... Legard started that, and even now Brundle is copying it.

[Eighthours]

And this decision could be CRUCIAL.

CRUCIAL

Is there a Legard drinking game? There probably is. It's called Scotland.

[Sidewaysbob]

Allen would be a step backwards. Crofty all the way.

However, might i throw Davidson and Chandhok into the mix

[Petey]

I don't think I could take another season of the drivers 'coming thick and fast!'
