On ESPN.F1 Lotus admit that they were late paying Kimi his wages and they only just paid him for this years racing....The RB offer was too tempting I'll bet

LOL!

I think Multi-21 may be dead...

I'm not happy that RBR employs the same bull**** other teams do. I really stood behind them in 2010 when they didn't back anyone and let them fight. If that ended up making Alonso WC, so be it. I want the teams to let the drivers battle.

I would hope for the sake of motorsport that Redbull would be wise enough to let the two best drivers out on the field figure it out

Domenicali insists however that Ferrari is still 100 per cent behind its driver
Ferrari fully behind Felipe Massa despite recent poor F1 form - F1 news - AUTOSPORT.com


Now back to Kimi. Even IF he does sign with RBR, I'll support Kimi but not RBR and I will await for the day for Vettel to make the Webber face when Kimi out drives that little biatch

However I am still hopeful Kimi will stay with Lotus
BBC Sport - Kimi Raikkonen: Lotus move to convince driver not to join Red Bull

One tid bit of over looked comments from news outlets:

Japanese former Sauber driver Kamui Kobabayashi, who is racing for Ferrari in sportscars this season after his failure to find an F1 seat, has also been mentioned in connection with Lotus.

So it's like last year when Massa was driving horribly for at least the first half of the season and Ferrari said they stand behind Massa.

My opinion is Alonso likes Massa. A real bromance at Ferrari. This is why they will keep him
