Kimi Raikkonen hꦿas no concerns about Ferrari's ongoing discussions regarding his Formula 1 future, saying it is a "pretty normal situation".

Raikkonen's future has been an ann🌃ual topic for F1's 'silly season' in recent years, with the Finn recꩵeiving a one-year extension for both of the past two campaigns.

Raik𓆉konen's 2017 Ferrari deal was announced over last year's British Grand Prix weekend, but ahead of this year's race at Silverstone, his future seems uncertain.

Ferrari CEO and chairman Sergio Marchionne called Raikkonen "laggard" in Austria last weekend and said he wanted to see more commitment, the 2007 world cham♑pionꦓ having scored less than half as many points as team-mate Sebastian Vettel.

Wh🦂en asked about his future on Thursday at Silverstone, Raikkonen was relaxed, saying the decision ultimately lies with Ferrari.

"Obviously we want to get good results, I want to get good results. The only purpose here is to ꦺdo well, but it's up to them," R💟aikkonen said.

"Whatever they decide it's their🧸 choice. We'll see, you have to talk to th♋e team and ask about that.

"In my view this is a pretty normal 💃situation, like it has been the last few years and it's OK."

Raikkonen made no secret of his disappointment with his showings so far this season, but hopes to bounce back at Silverstone on Sunday, having previously w꧃on at the track back in 2007.

"I don't even know where we are with the points - I haven't looked," Raikkonen said♓.

"For sure it's not been what we wanted but 𓆏this is what it is today and it's another weekend where w🀅e'll try to do well and hopefully get the results that we know we can get and go from there."
