Kimi Raikkonen expects to adapt quickly to the new Halo cockpit protection device that will be used in Formula 1 through 2🍒018, adding 🌟he is "happy" for the added safety measure.

F1 teams have been unveiling their new cars for the 2018 season over the pas🎶t two weeks, all of which are fitted with♕ the Halo that was made mandatory for the upcoming campaign by the FIA.

The move has proven divisive among fa𝓡ns, many of wဣhom feel the Halo detracts from F1's open-cockpit nature, while drivers have also been split on the decision.

Speaking following the launch of Ferrari's new F1 car, the SF71H, Raikkonen wa𒐪s happy with how the chassis looked even with the Halo, and is expecting to adjust quickly.

"The Halo looks different, but to be ho🐻nest we tried it last year a few time𒀰s and it wasn’t a huge difference. You get used to it," Raikkonen said.

“With this car, ꦰit is designed into it so it should be better and less visible when we are driving.

"It looks a 🎉bit different, but with all the new rule changes the cars look different, but then you get used to it quickly.

"It is what it is and it's a safety ꧙thing so I’m happy to take it.༒"

Raikkone🌞n will enjoy his first extended run out in the new Ferrari SF71H next week at the start of pre-season testing in Barcelona, Spain.
