  Kimi Räikkönen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
He won his first race during this span, the 2003 Malaysian Grand Prix, and thought he had won in Brazil as well, only to be demoted to second place in the wake of a rain-drenched, red-flagged race.
Significantly, at the opening of the Hungarian Grand Prix, though saying he was very comfortable at McLaren, Räikkönen raised the possibility that he may leave McLaren when his contract expires in 2006 if reliability issues are not solved.
Räikkönen also achieved an impressive statistic at the Hungarian Grand Prix by managing to win the race from the most handicapped qualifying position, having had to do his qualifying run first on the notoriously dusty and dirty track due to his early retirement a week earlier at Hockenheim.

 F1 News: FIA Friday Press Conference-Japan Grand Prix

So it’s not guaranteed and the worse possible case is that we would be in Melbourne next year with a car that complies to the 2005 regs with an engine that’s cobbled up into it because we have to do it that way, and we will be slow.
