Raikkonen clarifies engine situation

NEWS STORY

Following media speculation ahead of this weekend's race in Malaysia, Kimi Raikkonen has attempted to clarify the situation regarding his engine, which gave Ferrari cause for concern in the closing stages of the Australian Grand Prix last month.

"There is some concern," he admits. "We had a slight water leakage during the last part of the race and the team told me to slow down, writing 'Cool' on the sign on the pit wall, as the radio didn't work because of a problem with a plug.

"The engine has since been checked in the works and they also did some simulations," he continued. "Obviously we hope that the engine will make it through the whole weekend and that we don't have to change it before the qualifying, because we want to completely use our chance.

"In case we have to change it, obviously it would be a bit different for us: everything would be much more difficult as we would have to start ten positions."
