Lotus eager to tie Raikkonen down

I don't think Vettel would last long at Team Vettel. Besides the fact that he would end up as a #2 driver, regardless of talent, he wouldn't want any part of the P.R. requirements. Remember, RBR's primary purpose is being a rolling drinks advert.

Now here's an interesting idea.  Kimi is a lover of motorsport.  RB is a lover of sponsoring motorsport.  Maybe instead of telling Kimi to dial it back, they might let him go hog wild, racing bikes, rallies and snowmobiles, all with Red Bull plastered on the side.

Who cares about gladhanding, when they can draw an extra 5,000 fans to a dozen events just to see WDC Kimi?

I think I've pointed this out before.  REd Bull, the brand, LOVES a guy like Kimi, even if they never let him talk or do an Apero with some sponsor.
