Formula one racer Kimi Raikkonen on Tuesday extended his contract with Scuderia Ferrari until 2018.
"Ferrari N.V. announces that Scuderia Ferrari has renewed its technical and racing agreement with Kimi Raikkonen. The Finnish driver will therefore race for the Maranello team in the 2018 Formula One World Championship," Ferrari confirmed on its official website.
