      Seriously tho , Bottas should take lessons from kimi on how to beat Hamilton
      Edit : I like how people are undermining Raikkonen's consistency in 2007 and just giving excuses for Hamilton. Making excuses like he was a rookie , doesn't take away from the fact that he hasn't finished in the top 3 for 5 consecutive years when he had the 2nd/3rd best car from 2009 to 2013... For contrast , Verstappen has a better record even if you include his TORO ROSSO year , Shows you how consistent he really is when in the 2nd best car...

    The comment from Fernando about Kimi being the last Ferrari champion must have hurt. It seems mental that you had 5 years of alonso and 6 of vettel after Kimi won his title and neither of them managed it. The comments from Lewis and Fernando show the amount of respect Kimi has in the paddock.

    Lewis, Seb and Alonso thinking "If Kimi can do it, then so can I"

    Kimi is and will always be one of my favorite drivers both for his driving prowess as well as his radio comms. It's interesting that while Fins are notoriously reserved in public Kimi never shied away from letting you know what the deal was. We will miss him.

    2:25 "Last lap Kimi. All or nothing"
    Jokes aside I became a F1 fan because of Kimi. Not being able to attend the 2018 USGP has been one of my biggest regret for the last few years.

    1:02 the tinge of pain in Alonso’s voice that he wasn’t the last champion for Ferrari, and at 2:52 when he had more competitive machinery
