Raikkonen fuels rumours about his 2013 plans
5 October, 2012
Oct.5 (GMM) Kimi Raikkonen has kept rumours about his plans for the 2013 season alive by insisting that he is yet to agree terms to stay on at Lotus.
Team chiefs Eric Boullier and Gerard Lopez have recently said that the 2007 world champion is definitely staying in 2013, due to a contract ‘option’.
At the same time, there have been signs that Lotus is an active player in the 2013 ‘silly season’.
And Raikkonen is now quoted from Japan by Turun Sanomat newspaper: “I don’t have any agreement for next season yet.”
The monosyllabic Finn was willing to give much less away about his rival’s plans, including Lewis Hamilton’s switch to Mercedes, and the loss of Michael Schumacher’s seat.
“That has nothing to do with me and that’s why I don’t want to comment on anything like that which is not related to me,” Raikkonen insisted.

Michael Schumachers last F1 crown was in 2004, how does that have an effect on the 2007 car….3 years later?
@Vene you obviously don’t watch f1. or just started watching recently
Kimi, doesn’t get involved in other people’s dirty laundry, that is why he is such a fitting champion and I love that he is in F1.
Kimi the lucky champion benefitting from schumi’s work at Ferrari. He really doesn’t care about anything. He just thinks of himself. That is why he isn’t a worthy champion.
