Kimi Raikkonen has dismissed rumours he could quit Ferrari and Formula One at the end of this year.

The Finn is contracted to Ferrari until the end of 2009, often hinting that this current deal could be his last with the Scuderia and in fact his last with any F1 team.

However, recent comments by the World Champion suggesting that he's unhappy in F1 sparked rumours that he could quit soon.

"I like the racing but the other stuff is not always the best thing," he said last month.

"Everyone in F1 is here because they love racing and driving, but when there are too many things that you don't enjoy or too many things you don't want it is time to go away."

Raikkonen, though, has been quick to silence reports of his pending retirement, stating that he will see out his current Ferrari contract.

"I have not broken a contract in all my life, and I have no intention of doing so now. In 2009 I will be driving for Ferrari," he told Gazzetta dello Sport.
