Kimi counting on Spanish resurgence

Kimi Raikkonen was left disappointed with third place in the Malaysian Grand Prix which meant he lost the lead in the drivers' championship to race-winner Fernando Alonso. While the next race is this weekend in Bahrain, Raikkonen expects the balance to be quite similar between Ferrari and McLaren, but he is resting assured that a big update is on its way for his car in time for the Spanish Grand Prix.

"It is a little bit disappointing, but it is the early part of the season, but we did the best we could in the situation we were in and so the team did very well, I think, a very good job," Raikkonen said. "We knew when we came here we had some handicaps. So, I think we maximised our speed, but we wanted to win and be top of the table - but we did the best we could here and we just need to work better in the next races and in the coming weeks and improve the car. I think we have some big improvements coming, but probably not next race, but for Barcelona it should be ready."
