Top teams are pretty much the same for next year. A few opening spaces elsewhere. Guess it comes down to Kubica.

I think we'll see more changes in 2013 with the likelihood of a space at Red Bull and Di Resta maybe going to Mercedes.

He's also a far more likeable person this time around compared to his Ferrari days.

This is true. I used to despise him and Ferrari during their best years. I now actually quite like him he has chilled out a bit. It would be nice if he was able to get another win or two in but doubt it will happen - podiums maybe though.

Schumacher is driving a fair bit better than last year. Wonder how next year will be.

I guarantee that if Kimi is coming back, and it is on a 1 year deal, its because he knows that come 2013 there could potentially be spare seats at Red Bull, Merc and Ferrari, and who knows what mid field teams could push their way forward?

How much he would want to go back to Ferrari I don't know, and Merc might be to corporate for him.

If I were him, I'd be eyeing up Mark Webbers seat

Yup pretty much. I'm guessing he just wants a year in to get a feel for it, show off what he can do and take it from there.
