Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali has fuelled speculation Kimi Raikkonen is to leave the team at the end of the year.

The Finn has taken 30 points from the last four grands prix, in stark contrast to the ten won from the previous nine.

Pointedly asked to officially confirm Raikkonen will be driving a Ferrari in 2010, as he is contracted to do, Domenicali fudged the issue, saying: "As we have said, we don't want to discuss this now because I don't think it is correct."

He added: "As you know, Kimi has a contract with us next year, and this is what we can say now.

"We are happy with the performance of Kimi because he is driving fantastically, very, very well.

"The team is very, very happy with the way he has performed, above all in the second part of the season.

"He has been on the podium in the last four races, scoring more points than any other driver, including those fighting for the championship."
