Ferrari, Mattiacci: “Positive pressure on Raikkonen, we know he has problems with the F14T”

At a time when the future of Fernando Alonso is increasingly shrouded in mystery, Ferrari comes to the defense of its other driver, Kimi Raikkonen. The Finn, who continues to have heavy adaptation problems to the F14T, seems to be the only fixed point for the 2015 season. Marco Mattiacci, after last week's statements, has returned to praising the Iceman's work, confirming to colleagues from Gazzetta dello Sport that Raikkonen's position will certainly not be questioned.

Officially the Finn has a contract valid for at least one more championship but there continues to be an increase in the number of Ferrari fans who would like Alonso to be able to make a sensational about-face going to form a dream team with Sebastian Vettel and in this case it would have been Raikkonen himself who would have paid the price. “We have to put on him positive pressure – says the head of Sport Management – ​​He has problems understanding the car which has too much understeer at the front and this reason has entirely affected his season. But we want to react by working on this aspect. I'll leave it up to the fans play fantasy pilots“, He concluded.
