Raikkonen: French GP won't "change the world"

Looking ahead to the return of the French Grand Prix after a long leave of absence, Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen doesn't think that the comeback will exactly "change the world".

Unlike many, Raikkonen revealed that he has some past experience on the Circuit Paul Ricard, even though it wasn't in a racing context.

"I tested there in the past and there are a lot of different layouts they’ve been using in the past," he told RaceFans.

That was a while ago, though. The track has recently been re-asphalted, which should change the track's famous tyre degradation. Raikkonen disagrees.

Typical Ice Man reactions. Let's hope this weekend's Grand Prix will finally be a good one again!
