There is a rumor that Renault is courting Raikonen and Nokia as a sponsor for next year, in what could be a "even" trade. That is, if this whole 'crash-gate' doesn't force Renault out of the sport.

And as cool as the Fisi drive sounds, I was thinking it might be the end of his racing career. FI isn't going to want to take him back after this, and I can't see too many other people beating down his door, even though he is a very accomplished driver. In all honesty, becoming Ferrari's test and reserve driver for next year is probably a very good move for him in the long term.
