Hamilton says he146;s ready for Raikkonen

Lewis Hamilton has one aim this season: to beat Kimi Raikkonen and become Formula One8217;s youngest champion. The 23-year-old McLaren driver has swallowed the disappointment of losing out by a single point last year after Ferrari8217;s Finn roared back from 17 points down with two races left.

Hamilton, who won four races in an astonishing debut season that started with nine straight podium finishes and could so easily have ended with him becoming the first rookie champion, is eager for the rematch. 8220;I am more determined to beat him this year.8221;

8220;I just feel more determined this year. I know what I want,8221; added Hamilton, who has secured a lucrative new deal with McLaren.
