Räikkönen does not believe in victory

Kimi Räikkönen is not the type to practice wooden language. At least not before the German Grand Prix. The Finn, who has enjoyed a few days of vacation since the end of the British Grand Prix, is aware of the shortcomings of the Ferrari F60. “ We have to be realistic, this year our goal cannot be victory “, he says. " We must first improve our performance compared to the leaders. »

When it comes to the end of the year, however, Räikkönen hopes that he will be able to move closer to the lead. “ There are nine races left before the end of this extremely difficult season for us. Our objective is to give everything race after race without thinking about the gap we have with the leaders. I have confidence in the work of the team and its ability to get closer to the best He adds.

The Ferrari driver does not completely despair and believes that his car will be more suited to the German circuit than to the fast Silverstone track. “ The track should be better for the characteristics of our car than at Silverstone. We'll have a better idea of ​​where we stand after Friday's free practice sessions. He concludes.
