All gone a bit quiet on the Kimi front hasn't it. Get the feeling he may well be finished with F1. Only if Button stays at Brawn will he have a chance at a decent seat I'd think.

I read somewhere that if Kimi just sits on his current contract (which if he doesn't take another drive, Ferrari are still obliged to pay him it) he earns more than most of the teams are actually willing to offer.
He's said himself he doesn't want a drive just for the sake of it, he wants a top team or nothing and is quite prepared to sit out the whole season to get it.

Apparently Mercedes are saying that they are not after an all-German driver line-up so maybe Button will stay after all. I would have thought Brawn might be the better long term plan but I think that for 2010 McLaren would be the best bet.
If he does move, I certainly wouldn't be sad to see Raikkonen out of F1.
EDIT: Just saw this mockup on PlanetF1

Looks that way yes. Think he'll give Hamilton a good run for his money and hopefully bring out the best in both of them.
Going to take Alonso a while to adjust to the Ferrari if Fisi's few races are anything to go by.
Glad Glock will still be in F1 on 2010, even if it's "just" with Manor

I remember that Williams said they were planning on using KERS despite the agreement, which I don't really understand since they have been accepted back into FOTA.
