Kimi Raikkonen says Ferrari should not set targets in terms of hard results for 2016 but needs to continue its improvement from the past 12 months.
Ferrari was uncompetitive in 2014 and scored just two podiums in the first season under the 1.6-litre V6 turbo power units. This season saw a clear step forward on a number of fronts resulting in the team finishing second in the constructors' championship with three wins courtesy of Sebastian Vettel.
While Raikkonen is keen to deliver an improvement in terms of his own results he says Ferrari just needs to focus on continuing its upward trend.
"We’re going to give our best and hopefully it’s enough to fight for championships," Raikkonen said. "We keep improving, following our own way of doing the things that we’ve done from last year to this year and hopefully then it’s enough to be where we want to be as Ferrari.
"So, we can promise a lot of things. Is it going to happen? Who knows? I really hope for all the guys there in Ferrari that we will come back strong – or stronger next year than this year – but there’s no point to make big promises. We’re going to do our best and then we’ll see."
