Kimi Raikkonen is driving his last Grand Prix weekend for Ferrari in Abu Dhabi. But the Finnish veteran has insisted he is not thinking about it being his last time driving for Scuderia.

See the results from FP1 and FP2 here!

Raikkonen is driving for the last time for his beloved Ferrari in Abu Dhabi and managed a seventh and fifth place in FP1 and FP2, respectively.

The Iceman was pleased with the progress Ferrari made in the second practice session in comparison to the first.

"Today was a normal session, the first session was a bit more complicated, the second session was a little easier," Raikkonen told FormulaPassion. "We are a little bit behind the times, but let's see how it will end tomorrow."

Kimi will be making the move to Sauber, with Charles Leclerc stepping up to replace the 39-year-old for the start of next season.

The last kilometres are now being driven by Raikkonen in the Prancing Horse suit, but he has insisted he will not miss the opportunity.

He was asked if he has thought about the fact that it is his last few miles in the Ferrari car, Raikkonen rather typically replied very bluntly: "No."
