Kimi Raikkonen isn't for changing...

Kimi Raikkonen says he is no rush to decide his F1 future - or consider a different way of living!

The Finn, struggling to keep pace with team-mate Sebastian Vettel in the opening three races of 2017, is out of contract with Ferrari at the end of the year.

"I don't want to change my life, I'm happy with my life," Raikkonen responded when asked if, at the age of 37, he was considering a dramatic life change."

Speculation about Raikkonen's future in F1 and at Ferrari is nothing new. The former world champion signed one-year extensions with the Scuderia in both 2015 and 2016, defying a plethora of predictions in the paddock that he would leave the sport, and has dismissed the latest wave of suggestions his time at Maranello is already numbered.

"We'll see what happens. I've been in the same position for many years. People question many things but I am in no hurry. Whatever the future brings, it's what l want."
