Thread: Kimi Raikkonen to return to Formula 1 with Lotus Renault GP

Former world champion Kimi Raikkonen will return to Formula 1 next season after signing a two-year deal with Lotus Renault GP.

The 32-year-old Finn left Formula 1 at the end of 2009 to pursue a career in rallying.

"My hunger for F1 has recently become overwhelming," said Raikkonen. "It was an easy choice to return with Lotus Renault GP."

Raikkonen's new team will be known as Lotus F1 Team from 2012

Raikkonen has spent the last two seasons racing a Citroen in the World Rally Championship, where he had a career-best rally finish of fifth, and also competed in one-off races in the Nascar Truck Series and Nationwide Series
