After one season as team mates, Ferrari’s partnership between Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen will be split up after 2014.
The pair were the team’s first line up featuring two world title holders since the fifties. However Ferrari will retain its all-champions line-up next year with Sebastian Vettel in Alonso’s place.
