Lotus Renault have confirmed today that Kimi Räikkönen will return to an F1 car for the first time since 2009 later this month with a two day test at Valencia on January 23rd and 24th.

The test, designed to help reacclimatise the former world champion to F1 ahead of the scheduled pre-season tests, will be conducted using the 2010-spec Renault R30 on Pirelli demo-spec tyres as per regulations which limit the amount of testing for the teams.
