"You never know what's going to happen...you wouldn't think last year that we were going to have such a difficult season but things change quickly in Formula One, so whatever my decision is in the end, hopefully it is the right one."
"But you cannot know it before you make it."
Raikkonen won seven races last year, the same number as Alonso, but McLaren have failed to match the Renault's performance in 2006.
Hockenheim, Mercedes' home race, has been a nightmare circuit for him with five retirements in five starts there -- the last two while leading -- but the Finn is keeping up his hopes for the weekend.
"I don't have very good memories from here. I usually end up in the same tyre wall," he grinned.
"But we try to do the best we can. Last year we had a strong car, and you never know. The car has always been quite good here. Hopefully we are quick enough to challenge for victory."
