Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo is confident the real Kimi Raikkonen will be back for the next Formula One season.
Di Montezemolo jokingly suggested Raikkonen went AWOL at the mid-point of last season, handing the car over to "a friend" for the rest of a poor campaign.
"I joke that we had Kimi until Magny Cours, then he was busy and he asked a friend of his to drive," said Di Montezemolo. "This friend was a very good driver. He put on Kimi's helmet, but now we finally have the proper Kimi back again."
He added: "For a while he looked like a centre forward who wasn't scoring goals, but as soon as he did, you knew he would be okay again.
"We have spoken recently and I think he is very, very determined and in good form.
"Let's not forget that in his first year at Ferrari he was world champion. He will be back for sure."
