Kimi Raikkonen, aged 40, is currently the oldest driver in the field and has an expiring contract with Alfa Romeo. The big question is whether Raikkonen can still be admired in Formula 1 after 2020. The Finn himself states that he hasn't yet decided to continue or stop after this season.

Future unclear

"I haven't decided yet", says Raikkonen typically at the FIA press conference when asked about his future according to Autosport.com. The Finn says it is also not certain that if he continues in Formula 1, he will drive at Alfa Romeo.
"Obviously that also makes a difference, I'd much rather race in a good position and fighting for the points, but honestly, that's never guaranteed wherever you go in a new year that it's going to be good or bad", says Raikkonen when asked whether the current shape of Alfa Romeo plays a role in his decision.

At home with the family

Family means the most important role for the fast Finn at the moment, he says: "I think the bigger picture is much more important to me. First of all comes the family, and obviously the kids are getting bigger. There's going to be a point where I want to be home, and do other things", concludes Raikkonen.
