Who Will Compete For Ferrari F1 In 2018

Rumors said Ferrari will not compete in this year's F1 championship but it seems like they're more than ready to make a good impression. The team was already making plans for 2018 at the end of the last year and recently, they announced the name of the pilot who will compete this season. One of the Ferrari F1 drivers who will compete this year is Kimi Raikkonen, who has just renewed his contract with the team. This decision might lead to an extension of Sebastian Vettel's contract which was due to expire at the end of 2017. There is a big difference between the two drivers regarding the points they won, as Vettel is in the top of the championship while Raikkonen isn't in a good shape. This could mean Kimi will give his best to make a good impression this year and get some more points for Ferrari F1.

The Main Competitor Of Ferrari F1

People who follow the Ferrari F1 news definitely want to know who the team thinks is their main competitor this year and it seems like Mercedes is the name you can hear the most in their statements. The rivalry between these two teams has led to spectacular races in 2017 and we will definitely see some great "fights" this year, as well. While some people compare F1 with casino online, saying you need luck to win, this competition is all about skills, powerful cars and good teams.

2018 will also come with a brand new Ferrari F1 car even though there weren't any big changes regarding the regulations. While last year we could see some vehicles which had wider rear wheels and lower wings, this year the rules stay the same. Mercedes and Ferrari F1 will both launch their new models on February 22, so this is gonna be an exciting date for all F1 fans out there.

What Will Be The Changes In The Ferrari F1 Team?

As Ferrari has decided to extend the contracts of Vettel and Raikkonen, there will not be any major changes in their team for this season. It's always good to keep the same people who brought you good results, so it is easy to understand why there are no major changes in their group. Even though there aren't any new names in the Ferrari F1 team, it's gonna be a great season, for sure.
