Along with its rivals, Kimi Raikkonen remained on track for a second day of testing today at Circuit Paul Ricard in the south of France.

Kimi Raikkonen continued with preparations for the Monaco Grand Prix, again working on settings for the F2008 and on development of new aerodynamic solutions for high downforce circuits. The planned programme for these past two days was completed with no technical problems. Raikkonen completed 102 laps with a best time of 1:05.381s, fastest of the day and of the test so far.

Testing at this circuit, with its configuration modified to replicate some characteristics of a track like Montreal, continues tomorrow, when Felipe Massa takes over behind the wheel.
