Raikkonen under contract but on the move?

The wheels of speculation regarding the futures of Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso continue to spin in Singapore.
Ferrari team boss Stefano Domenicali, who has Raikkonen under contract for 2010, on Friday admitted that "the situation has changed... in the last couple of days".
At the same time, Alonso revealed that he has made his mind up about his plans for next year, while the Raikkonen camp admitted that contracts can be broken.
Sport Bild now reports that mutual team sponsor Santander, keen to make room at Ferrari for Alonso, has agreed to pay McLaren €25m if it will give Raikkonen a race seat next year.

And in the Spanish newspaper El Mundo, Alonso was asked what he thought of Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo's comments about Ferrari hoping to announce its drivers for 2010 "soon".
"He said it is going to be soon but I don't know when," Alonso responded. "I have taken my decision more or less, but there are several options, not just one."

I thought Ferrari should not be pushed by sponsors, ferrari should not sink that low, it should be a great for a sponsor to support ferrari, not the other way around.....

I want KIMI, let him stay cause he WANT too, its very unlike ferrari to threat their drivers/ emploeyes like this.
Hope they will get their eyes up soon, and dont ``support`` blackmailling.
