LONDON -- Former Formula One world champion Kimi Raikkonen will compete for Citroen in the World Rally Championship next season.
The team announced Friday that the Finnish driver would compete for its Red Bull-backed Junior Team in 2010.
Raikkonen, who won the 2007 F1 championship, left Ferrari at the end of the 2009 season to make way for the arrival of Fernando Alonso.
The one-year contract keeps alive the chances of Raikkonen returning to F1 in 2011.
