Kimi Raikkonen has insisted Alfa Romeo will do their best whatever the circumstances and is hoping 2021 provides better fortunes as Alfa Romeo launched their challenger for the upcoming season.

Raikkonen and Antonio Giovinazzi finished 16th and 17th in the Drivers' Championship in a largely underwhelming season for Alfa Romeo. However, the Finn is hoping for a better year in 2021 but admitted it is a period of unknown with the rule changes. 

"Obviously first of all it’s nice to see the new car," Raikkonen said at the launch of the C41 in Warsaw.

"We are in an area of unknown there’s some rule changes and how’s that going to impact everybody and where we are going to be.

"Hopefully we are better off than we were last year and we’ll get some idea in testing in a couple week’s time and in one month’s time in the first race we’ll really know where we are but we’ll do our best wherever we end up to be," Raikkonen concluded.
