Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen feels that he can with the help of the team turn his season around after what has proven to be a very tricky return to the Italian team for the Finn. The Iceman is currently in 12th place in Drivers championship on 27 points, while Fernando Alonso is currently in 4th place in drivers championship on 115 points.

Raikkonen hopes that the second part of the season will be much better then the first half. Raikkonen's best result of the season to date came last time out at the Hungarian Grand Prix where he finished the race in 6th place while Alonso finished in second.

Raikkonen revealed he believes in the people at Ferrari and knows that they can put themseles where they should be which is challenging for podium finishes. 

The Finn understands that it will be difficult to turn things around dramatically this season but is confident that they can take what they have learnt this season into 2015 and be back at the front challenging for the championship.

Ferrari aren't the only team who have struggled so far in 2014 as McLaren and and Red Bull have also struggled this season however the reigning world champions are beginning to make their way back up the grid after Daniel Ricciardo took two victories in the first part of the season in Canada and last time out in Hungary.
