Raikkonen hungry for more F1 titles

Jan 26, 2008, 13:58 GMT

Frankfurt - Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen says he is hungry for more success following his drivers' title in last season's Formula One championship.

'Anyone who thinks I am now happy and satisfied is mistaken,' the Finn said in an interview published in Saturday's Bild newspaper.

'It was never fun for me to drive for a fifth or sixth place finish. I'm here to win,' said the 28-year-old.

Raikkonen's contract with the Italian marque runs until the end of 2009 and the driver says he hasn't considered driving for any other team.

'I can well imagine that Ferrari will be the last team in my career,' he said. 'Why should I consider leaving?'

The 2008 F1 season begins with the Australian Grand Prix at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne on March 16.
