      Unrelated but I watched the 2005 European GP and was hoping Kimi Raikkonen would be able to nurse it to a win. It always happens and a bit of a shame. Without the ten second stop go penalty he probably would've finished on the podium, which goes to show how incredible the 2012 season was that a midfielder could suddenly challenge for the win one day. You wouldn't see Hamilton fighting a Mclaren or Alfa Romeo for the lead of a race for several laps on end today.

After the race, we ran out on the track and at the pitlane, the lotus team was giving away Kimi’s personal umbrella. They wanted to give it to a child, and they ended up giving it to me. I. Own.

      That doesn't really get talked about to much because it was a very quiet 3rd place with some amazing drives and even a victory but because he was so far away from alonso and vettel at the end few think about it. I think it's one of his best season ever and definatly his best after his short retirement. Though 2018 is a good contender

      @moi paslui I mean last season in Germany was his fault going wide and then not realizing how slippy it was there, but what I don't understand about that situation is how he wasn't told that if you went wide there, you couldn't recover. There were at least 4 cars going onti the gravel at that corner because there was absolutely no grip and one of those retired, but the engineer still didn't told him to be very cautious out there. WHY? Because if he did, the Hulk wouldn't have retired.

I think it's a travesty that a driver like Hülkenberg hasn't scored a podium and gets seen as less of a driver for it. Even though hes a much better driver than many people who has scored poduims. I have gathered a lot of data on this and he is better than almost every teammate he had exept maybe Barrichello and ricciardo. Pérez you might say? Well Pérez is an amazing driver but he isn't as consistant over a season even if hes ussually the one to get that off podium. I think hulk is better

At 0:27 his brakes started to lock up, he realizes the car in front of him was Sebastian Vettel, knowing that he cannot fully stop the car because he was locking up, he just then steered completely to his right just to avoid rear ending Seb, had Kimi not have the awareness that would've surely ended Seb's race even before the contact to Bruno Senna.

On the other hand Vettel had too many reliability issues. People severely downplay Vettel, especially final race, damage, radio malfunction, pitstop mess he overcame all odds and became a champion. Ferrari didn't have the best car but still it's second fastest and faster than redbull on straights for atleast 3/5 of the season. Thanks to Ferrari too, it atleast provided a car with better reliability than redbull. But still it's great drive from Alonso but not the best.

He would have deserved a title, but Vettel also deserved it, the RB wasn't as dominant as in the other years and he made a superb comeback
      And 2010 is similar. They always say how incredible Alonso drove to come 5 points to winning the title. Well, without the car issues in Bahrain, Australia and Korea alone Vettel would have finished more than 80 points ahead
