Formula 1 arrived in Bahrain today as the country prepares to host the inaugural round of the 2006 Championship. There is still widespread contemplation on whether Kimi Raikkonen's future is at McLaren Mercedes in 2007, or elsewhere.

Through winter testing there have been 'has he or hasn't he' stories flying around the media in regards to the possibility that Raikkonen may have even already signed a contract to race for The Scuderia after this year.

In Bahrain Kimi said that he hasn't signed a contract with anybody yet. The Finn then hinted "There is a bigger chance that I will stay at McLaren than join another Formula 1 team."
