Kimi: I want a podium finish at Spa

Raikkonen wants top-three finish

Kimi Raikkonen has set his sights on a podium finish at the Belgium Formula One Grand Prix at Spa on Sunday (August 30th).

If successful, it would be the Ferrari driver's third consecutive top-three finish and the Finn suggested it was a serious possibility after revealing his fondness for the track.

He remarked: "I have always loved racing at Spa where I've won many times since I started my career in the smaller racing series," adding that "the main goal" was to show the consistency exhibited over the last few races.

Raikkonen finished second in Hungary and third in Valencia in a car that Ferrari have stopped working on so that they can prepare for the 2010 World Championship.

Those who believe the 29-year-old is likely to achieve a podium finish at Spa can find odds of 11/4 at bookmaker Bet365 (Go to Bet365 »).

Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel is the race favourite and is available at 10/3 with Paddy Power (Go to Paddy Power »).
