    In a funny way..............the rain saved Sebs championship. All that praying by the Scuderia for weather like this actually went into Sebs favour. No way the car would of survived if it was dry and hot, no way in hell.

    Need to rename Seb, (Saint Seb the 3rd)

    It's also worth mentioning, Kimi Raikkonen finished every single race this season, the only driver to do so.

    EDIT: I believe it's some kind of record.

    Räikkönen was born in Espoo. He had a long line of success in karting from the age of ten. His first race outside Finland was in Monaco when he was 15 years old. During the race, the steering wheel broke, but he continued, informing his mechanic by frantically waving the steering wheel in the air on the home straight. Räikkönen's next Monaco race was also memorable; he was thrown on the wrong side of the safety fence in a first lap collision, but continued driving until running out of road. Undeterred, he lifted his kart back on to the track and continued to race. His mechanic thought Räikkönen had retired, but he eventually caught up with the other competitors and finished third.

    "Where I went off you can get back on the track by going through the support race pitlane, but you have to go through a gate.
    "I know this as I did the same thing in 2001 and the gate was open that year. Somebody closed it this time.
    "Next year I'll make sure it's open again..."

    Having seen the thumps his car took, am surprised it could carry on. They do seem to build F1 components a lot stronger than they used to. Seen a lot of suspension breaking contacts where the vars just carry on! (Schuey's legacy lives on!)

    He did well to keep his head and get the result he needed, despite an un-needed pitstop which could so easily have blown it for him.

    Great drive.

    Maybe Newey has learnt after years of fragile cars?
