Kimi Raikkonen acknowledges Formula 1’s pecking order heading to Melbourne is a “big mystery” as Alfa Romeo could be “fifth or we are 10th.”

Raikkonen’s new team, or old team given that he made his Formula 1 debut back in 2001 with Sauber, put in a solid showing during the two pre-season tests.

The Finn was fourth fastest in the opening test before falling back in the second.

Both Raikkonen and his new team-mate Antonio Giovinazzi were outside the top ten on the overall timesheets but many believe they could still be one of this year’s surprise packages.

As for Raikkonen, he says time will tell.
