Kimi Raikkonen is looking forward towards the upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix scheduled at Budapest. He is positive that he will leave the circuit as victorious.

The Finnish driver is hoping that he will leave the circuit as victorious because it is expected that the coming weekend at Hungaroring will be hot and E20 is known to give impressive performance in high temperatures. The weather forecast adds to the confidence of the Finnish driver.

Raikkonen says that their team has been working on the upgradation of their car and they are confident that they would be competitive in Budapest.

He said, “The team has been working hard in developing our car and we are confident we should be competitive in Hungary. Usually we have a hot weekend at the Hungaroring, and that's what we have been looking forward to during the whole summer.”

He further added that he does not like going to media without a win. Moreover, he does not like explaining to media why he could not win the race.

Considering his struggling past performances in the qualifying rounds, Raikkonen is of the view that good grid position will play an important role in the race but if they are not able to perform convincingly in the qualifiers, even then they will have an opportunity in the race.
