MONZA, Italy -- Kimi Raikkonen thinks Ferraris engine upgrade is a step in the right direction after putting it through its paces during Friday practice.Ferrari has spent its three remaining engine development tokens on an upgrade this weekend, meaning Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel have the best specificiation the team will have in 2016. Raikkonen is expecting to see gains from the power unit and says the development has followed a logical path.It is pretty small steps and we wouldnt put anything in the car that wouldnt improve our performance, Raikkonen said after FP2. Its just a normal progress, we try to improve all the areas and thats one of them. Its a small thing but its the right direction.Ferrari arrives at its home race in Monza still waiting to record its first win of 2016. Friday practice rarely paints a complete picture of what to expect later in the weekend and after finishing fourth fastest, Raikkonen believes there is plenty for Ferrari to find ahead of qualifying.I think the first practice was pretty good, the second one less good, with new tyres and yellow flags and stuff like that. Overall it was not too bad, the car was feeling pretty OK. Theres things to improve, always, but it started pretty OK.

Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley says its unfortunate that Lin Jongs tour of Collingwoods training base has been aired publicly but he wasnt the first and wont be the last contracted AFL player to visit a rival club mid-season.And Buckley would do it again.The Magpies were caught out in their efforts to lure Jong, 23, from the Western Bulldogs after a visit last week was reported by News Corp.The emerging midfielder is out of contract at years end.Jong put the interest aside to perform strongly for the Bulldogs in their stirring four-point win over Sydney on Saturday.But Buckley - who played tour guide and met with Jong during his covert visit - was left red-faced when the brash play became public this week.He suggested hed be furious if hed learned of one of his players checking out Whitten Oval with Luke Beveridge.If I was in Bevos shoes you definitely wouldnt be happy, he said.Its for that reason that Buckley reached out to Beveridge, leaving a message on his phone.Buckley was adamant he hadnt broken any code between AFL coaches, insisting this was common practice.What was unusual is that it was reported.To the Collingwood coach, these are unsightly but necessary parts of the job.(In) the back half of the year managers and players alike are shoring up their futures, he said.Were not going to leave any stone unturned speaking to those managers in particular to imprrove our list and to find out whats on the market.ddddddddddddMost conversations dont go anywhere but every now and then they do. Very rarely do you know about them.Its happened consistently and Im sure its happened with the shoe on the other foot.Its dog eat dog.There still are morals and laws that are expected and accepted. We like to believe we follow those.Buckley and Melbourne coach Paul Roos agreed this should not be the start of an NRL-style system where players declare their next move while still playing for their soon to be ex-club.What I would have a problem with, having lived in Sydney, is the NRL system, Roos said.It just doesnt work. And thats the other extreme.What were talking about I guess with Lin Jong is somewhere in the middle and were all going to have different views on that.AFL Players Association boss Paul Marsh disagreed on that point, saying views needed to mature and footballers were professional enough to get on with the job.He paused before considering whether hed do the same again, deciding to act on advice from Magpies list manager Derek Hine.Good question, he said.Derek is our list manager. Hes in constant contact with managers and if he felt it was an appropriate step and I was asked to come along, I would. ' ' '
