Earlier on today McLaren confirmed they had signed Jenson Button to drive alongside Lewis Hamilton in 2010 and lets be honest, it was news we were all expecting.

However there has just been a shocking news story by Brazilian journalist Lito Cavalcanti, saying that Kimi Raikkonen has signed for Brawn GP who will run under the Mercedes name next season.

If this sensational story turned out to be true, it would be a complete backtrack by Raikkonen and his management team, who yesterday said that the Finn would not be in F1 next season, and that he would do rallying and possibly compete at Le Mans next year instead.
