Kimi Raikkonen was fastest on the last day of the Formula pre-season tests
Raikkonen commented that Ferrari can go faster if they wanted to “but it doesn’t mean anything here”. He also added all will be clear in two weeks when the first race weekend – in Australia – will take place.
“Until that, we are only guessing like we were before the testing started”, Kimi said.
