In 2008, Ferrari dominated the Spanish Grand Prix with Kimi scoring the hatrick: Pole Position, Victory and Fastest Lap. This season however, Ferrari has shown none of the dominating form displayed in Spain last season.
Ferrari have scored just three points in four races, all coming from Kimi in the last race just two short weeks ago.
Ferrari, however, is introducing major upgrades for this weekend's race in Spain, hoping to take a significant step forward.
Test driver Marc Gene tested the evolution of the F60 car at Vairano last weekend, and the tem was left encouraged by the results.
The car included a double-decker diffuser and a lighter chassis among other changes.
"I really liked hearing from the team that the new aerodynamic package's first signs are positive," Raikkonen added. "It will be really interesting taking the car out during Friday's free practice sessions.
"We drove on this track back in March this year, but it's always really difficult to understand from the tests, who's really strong in the field. Furthermore many cars have changed quite a lot since then.
"With the new aerodynamic package we'll have more downforce compared to the first four races, but also almost all of the others will show up with some updates. We'll see who has done better work."
