Kimi Raikkonen may have returned to the podium for the first time for over 18 months in the Bahrain Grand Prix, but that will not be enough for the Finn to secure his Ferrari future.

The 2007 world champion endured the worst season of his Formula One career last season, failing to finish within the top-three in any of the 19 grands prix and finishing outside of the top-10 in the drivers' standings for the first time.

It is unsurprising, then, that new Ferrari boss Maurizio Arrivabene wants to subject the Finnish driver to a thorough examination alongside Sebastian Vettel before deciding whether to continue with Raikkonen beyond 2015.

Should Ferrari, for whatever reason, part ways with Raikkonen, it is unclear whom the Prancing Horse would choose to partner Vettel.

Williams' Valtteri Bottas, Force India's Nico Hulkenberg and Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo could all be in contention, but F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone has indicated that he would like to see Lewis Hamilton, a Mercedes man since he joined McLaren as a youngster, behind the wheel of a scarlet-red car.

Meanwhile, Mercedes have revealed more details about the brake issues that almost saw Hamilton relinquish the win to Raikkonen in Bahrain, with the team confident the problems suffered by the reigning world champion and team-mate Nico Rosberg will not become a recurring theme.

Further back, Pastor Maldonado has been discussing his troubled start to the season at Lotus, revealing his thoughts on his bad reputation among the sport's onlookers, while Manor are celebrating after yet another decent result.

Here's this week's roundup.
