McLaren duo target Turkey victory

Raikkonen, last year's winner at the Hungaroring and starting from pole position with his best chance of securing McLaren's first win of 2006, had been running in second place when he crashed into Toro Rosso's Tonio Liuzzi while lapping him.

The Finn won last year's race in Turkey from pole position and, following his strong showing in Hungary, he is hopeful of repeating the feat.

"I took the maiden pole and victory at the Istanbul Speed Park last year, and it would be fantastic to repeat it in 2006," said Raikkonen.

"The car again felt strong in Hungary and we had good pace, so we will all be pushing hard towards this."

Teammate Pedro de la Rosa, who in Hungary scored his maiden F1 podium with a second place, is also looking to go one step further.

"It was awesome to get the podium at the Hungaroring and my aim is now of course to get one step higher," he said. "Along with Imola and Interlagos, the track runs anticlockwise and another key factor is the bumps.

"These have an influence on set-up, mostly for aero, and as a result we will run with less front wing than at tracks with a smoother characteristic such as Magny Cours.

"However a compromise has to be found, because we also want a lot of front end for turn 8 in particular, as it is such a long corner onto a straight, and you need the speed, but if you have too much the car will pick up over the bumps and throw the back of the car out."
