Reports are coming out of Italy that Kimi Raikkonen actually signed a contract to race for Ferrari in 2007 way back in August 2005. The buzz around the Monza paddock is that the driver line-up for Ferrari in 2007 will be Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa.
Both Raikkonen and Massa started their Grand Prix careers with Sauber Petronas – ironically powered by a Ferrari engines rebadged as Petronas.
Michael Schumacher meanwhile is set for retirement at the end of the season. Whether he wins this year’s Formula One World Championship or not, it seems like a perfect year for him to exit as he’s still very competitive.
