I'll start with Kimi if I may. Congratulations on the move for next season. First time we've seen you since the announcement. If we'd have said to you at the start of the season that you'd be a confirmed Ferrari driver by September, what would have said then: no chance, no way or is it something you always thought might be possible?
Kimi Raikkonen: I just have to say things change in Formula One a lot. I never had a bad feeling with them really. But I mean I still have a lot friends and good memories from there. I knew that my contract will end at the end of this year so obviously I had to make some kind of decision what to do for next year and now it's been done.

Was there anything that Lotus could have done to keep you with the team or was the attraction of a return to Ferrari just to strong for you?
KR: Yeah, there was a lot of things and for sure they know what it is. It's hard to say which way it would have gone if that would have had happened but the deal's done now and I'm very happy with the new deal.

What would you say is the biggest challenge for you then next season at Ferrari?
KR: I know the team and I know the people. Obviously there are some new people and some more have left since I was there but most are the same. I don't think this will be too difficult to go there and do well. The car's will be obviously different so I think that will be the most difficult thing, to get the cars right and get them running reliable and whoever makes the best car will probably make the best out of it.

Thank you Kimi. Let's turn to Nico Hulkenberg, sitting behind you. There's at least one seat going at Lotus and if you look at some of the headlines on the Internet you're the man for the man for that team for next season. With due respect to your current team, is signing for Lotus a priority for you?
Nico Hulkenberg: It's not a priority. The priority is to find a good deal and a good car, a competitive car, and a good package. Nothing is finalised. Nothing has been decided at this point. Trying to sort out all the options and then to come up with a good decision for the future.

Your name was of course linked to Ferrari. Did you think you got very close to a move there?
NH: I don't know. I guess so. There was a chance there. There's no point now to think about that too much. That's history now. I have to look forward and move on.

You come here fresh with your performance at Monza in your mind. How much of a relief was that result for you given some of the difficulties on track this year?
NH: It was a fantastic weekend for us, a great effort by the team. I'm really happy for everybody there, for the hard work and that finally we could reward them a little bit, and for sure that's given us a boost and some momentum for the final seven races. Monza, after a very challenging and disappointing year, has been very happy and good for us.

Sergio, I'm sure you're really excited to be here in Singapore this weekend but I'm sure your thoughts aren't very far away from your fellow countryman affected the tropical storm in Mexico?
Sergio Perez: Definitely. We're not having a great time right now. A lot of people have lost their houses; other people have died. Things are getting a bit more complicated. That's a bit sad for my country. I will dedicate my race weekend for all my country, all the people that is suffering, losing their houses, their families, so hopefully things can get better.

From a personal perspective, this time last year we were discussing your future and linking you to a move to McLaren, which eventually came off. Twelve months on people are talking about your future again. Have you signed a contract with McLaren yet?
SP: Yeah, it's pretty much everything done, I think, But the right thing to do is to ask Martin about that but everything is done.

Have there been stumbling blocks along the way or have you been in unanimous agreement with McLaren?
SP: Yeah, we've been having some discussions about the contract. The contract is done but we are just finalising the final dots. Obviously I cannot give much details about them but everything is pretty much done.

Valtteri, driving the Marina Bay circuit for the first time – what challenges lie ahead for you do you think this weekend?
Valtteri Bottas: I think it's going to be a difficult race weekend, like Monaco was first time for me. And then this track, it's a night race obviously but the lighting is very good and bright so that shouldn't make a big difference but y'know, it's a difficult circuit, a lot of corners, so there's lots to learn on Friday.
