Martin Whitmarsh has given the clearest indication yet that 2007 F1 World Champion Kimi Raikkonen will be a McLaren-Mercedes driver once more in 2010, admitting that the Finn is an 'attractive' proposition who 'would fit well' at his employers next year.
“Kimi is a fantastic driver, and I like him and know him well – he was with the team for five years. He is quick, he is committed and I think he probably would be very committed to beating Ferrari in the future, knowing him. All these are attractive things with Kimi.
“He is not political, he is absolutely straightforward – what you see is what you get with Kimi – and on top of that everyone knows that he is a winning driver. I think he has been underestimated technically. He is a very good racing driver and I think he would fit well in this team, if we choose to go down that route.”
