      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.

      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

    This has been the best F1 season of the decade and arguably the best in history. 8 different winners, 800+ overtakes, a bunch of awesome world champions together (Schumacher, Alonso, Hamilton, Button, Raikkonen, Vettel, Rosberg...), cars that were not SO distant between them (nowadays, there are only 3 teams fighting for the wins), good tracks... i miss these days. The V6T era has been complete crap compared to 2012, 2010, 2008 or 2007. I wish i could go back in time to enjoy one of these races in person.

    People tend to forget this moment but I think it just shows Kimi's expertise and awareness. 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.

      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
