Former Formula 1 World Champion Kimi Raikkonen was at the Lotus Renault GP factory today Thursday.
Raikkonen, who competed in the FIA World Rally Championship for the past two seasons and even tried NASCAR racing last summer is getting ready to make his F1 comeback with the British team.

This is a lengthy process as the molded seat has to fit perfectly inside the new monocoque. The engineers also take the time to adjust the pedals, the steering column and wheel and all controls to the driver's liking.
Raikkonen is expected to get some mileage in a older Renault car prior to the first official winter test session to be held in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain February 7 to 10.
