Kimi Raikkonen says Ferrari is out of this season's F1 title race after just six rounds

Finnish driver Kimi Raikkonen has said that Ferrari is out of this season's Formula One title race after just six rounds.

Although Raikkonen's teammate Fernando Alonso reportedly insists that Ferrari would keep battling until the end of the season, the Finn has instead insisted that they cannot improve enough to challenge runaway leaders Mercedes.

According to the Mirror, Raikkonen, whose best result this season has been seventh place, said that it has not been the best year so far but he is sure that they can turn it around and get where they want, not this year but in the future. Except for Alonso finishing in third just once this season, Ferrari has not managed a podium finish, the report added.
