Kimi Raikkonen's Championship Lap in Brazil

[craig9532]

bring back these cars

[TaikaJamppa]

@craig9532 Buy Gran Turismo 5, look for Ferrari in Dealerships (GT-mode) Check the bottom of the list, there you go.

[Mikkiz1]

RAIKKONEN IS THE FASTEST DRIVER EVER!

[MupNaz]

@Mikkiz1 Haha

[keytek9]

@Mikkiz1 i agree his better than all of those idiots now a days

[siddharthjoshi91]

The cars of 2007 and 2008 were the best looking cars in F1 history.

[WeLWets]

how many wins or fastest laps fernando have so far with ferrari? just a question cuz i dunno.

[keytek9]

woow the bbc were sad thatr kimi won lool woow they like lewis to much

[TheChumb4]

@keytek9 it was his first year, and he was in the run for the championship. idiot.

[keytek9]

@TheChumb4 i know that but did u not understand my comment?/ idc about lewis he sucks anyways but they dont give a shit about the winner unless it was lewis

[chanyiwei]

@TheChumb4 first year in championship car.....some luck that kimi doesnt possess~~!!

[SebbyHaughtonf1]

James Allen was gutted.

You can hear it in his voice, he was so un-enthusiastic about Kimi winning the championship.

[chanyiwei]

tired of these 2008 shit....pls focus more on the race!! Kimi clinched 10 fastest lap on that season....he has been struggling witht the understeering car specially made for Massa as Kimi never take the initiative to force the team and build a car around him! And the facts that he did good in a car that doesnt suit him at all...and drive it in oversteer manners....you can observe this when he enter the corners !! Look how shit massa did in a car that doesnt suit him at all in 2010 and 2011!!

[stewartgonzalez]

my fondest memory of Kimi: Suzuka 2005

[chanyiwei]

Most deserved WDC ever~~~ you will know why i said that if you have follow him from 2001 until now!!!

[danwest1989]

I was very happy when he crossed the line and put the hand in the air celebrating.. I'm glad that he's back. Welcome back kimi!!

[FATbottomedBOY]

This was the best race ever :)!!

[bilalp1]

the end of real f1 with a true deserving champion.

[naranx700]

vettel not classified)))

[underthesouthercross]

Seriously get him into a Ferrari with Alonso and they would be unstoppable in 2012 if they have a better car then Red bulls

[CashBT]

Kimi at Lotus ! Yeah baby

[Connactzor]

James Allen sounds so dissapointed, horrible commentator.

[F1HCM]

I watch this because Kimi back Lotus 2012

[3GM65D]

1:43 - 1:50 Huge goosebumps!

[EvilKnievel1980]

Kimi tervetuloa takaisin, Kimi welcome back!!!!

[Burnout900012]

6 World Champions on the grid next year. Can't. Wait.

[Sprinterdrift]

He's BACK Baby!!

[massblast92]

[TheSterjo]

[azsummntup]

It was amazing race I couldn't sleep all night

[salmanfarruz]

williams

[RoarOfZonda]

WELCOME BACK TO FORMULA 1 KIMI!

Fucking love this guy, one of my favorite drivers of ALL TIME!

[sunyjosh]

fuck hamilton and vettel and alonso.....KIMI is best nd nxt year he can fuck all drivers....he is back....!!!!

[RaisenTV]

KIMI IS BACK!!! :)

[MegaSkulldude]

Next year Kimi bangs secons champ in Williams.

[Euclides287]

@Zscheesus Massa letting Kimi overtake him to win the championship, was that pure skill?

Do you honestly think that Alonso would ever let Hamilton do the same? No! That´s my point. They wasted to much time fighting and taking points from each other but I don´t blame them coz they´re real racers and that´s how things work at Mclaren. Raikonen is the most overrated driver in history of F1 that´s why he was not only beaten by Massa in the following season but also sacked by his team.

[141471]

@Euclides287 yes, on this race massa let kimi win the race but from previous races, raikonnen did better than lewis and alonso without the help of massa. so you cant really say he is overrated as he is very talented driver

[rknn]

@Euclides287 raikkonen is world champ, massa is not. case closed

[carsismeZ06]

Damn, I wish the cars still looked like this.

[AllieAndPeach]

oh yeah, kimi's COMING BACK! :D

[husamj]

As much as i loved that season and loved watching Kimi win a deserved championship. I hated listening to the itv commentary. All they did was talk about Hamilton, it was pathetic, but a typical british bullshit frame of mind. No matter who was on pole or who won the race, Hamilton would be the topic of discussion for half the show

[Euclides287]

True fans of F1 know why Kimi won the championship in 2007. Hamilton and Alonso taking points from each other the whole season. None of these two had a sidekick like Kimi had. Hamilton and Alonso are by far the best two racers in F1. Fact!!

[Sliteh]

@Euclides287 Naturally you're from UK and no doubt a hardcore Hamilton fan (why wouldn't you be :p). But hating on Raikkonen because he's better than Hamilton is not cool.

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Sliteh He's portuguese...and looks like a die hard Massa fan xD

[f1faniceman]

@Euclides287 With Alonso, I agree with you. He IS a great driver. But Hamilton? No effing way!

[Balnazzardi]

@Euclides287 Screw you! Kimi won more races than others that year 6 races total, Failonso and Ham won 4 times...and that is a fact!

And we all know that had Mclaren been as fast as it had been reliable in 2005, Kimi would be 2 times world champion, Failonso 1....in my opinion the best drivers of F1 from recent years are Kimi, Kubica and Vettel.

Hamilton and Santander Eyebrow are not bad drivers, but they are defianitely the most overrated.

[Euclides287]

@Balnazzardi Kimi is the most overrated driver in history of F1. He was beaten by Massa in the two following seasons, that´s why Ferrari got rid of Kimi. Every team principal wants the best drivers driving for them, if Kimi was that good he wouldn´t be sacked by Ferrari, or do you know more than Domenicalli about F1? Saying that Vettel is on the same level or even better than Hamilton and Alonso sums up your little knowledge of F1.

[Balnazzardi]

@Euclides287 Hah, Santander paid Kimi off from Ferrari, because they wanted Alonso there!....And Ferrari wanted Santaders sponsor money....are you really so stupid that you cant count 1+1, Spanish Bank + Spanish driver....And just that you know, Kimi got more points in the last 1/3 of 2009 season than any1 else, except for Hamilton who got 1 point more than him...and he did that with car that was complete failure!...

And Vettel is the youngest 2 times world champion...what else do I need to say

[Euclides287]

@Balnazzardi Money is not everything, especially when it comes to a team like Ferrari. F1 cars are much more cheaper to produce. Just take a good look at how ugly the 2009 cars were. Money isn´t and will never be an issue with Ferrari. Massa beat him fair and square, get over it. I hope you enjoy watching your overrated driver driving for a shit team in 2012! LOL

[Balnazzardi]

@Euclides287 Well in 2008 Massa drove brilliantly, I'll admit that, but Kimi also had much bad luck...and really...it's not just about manufacturing cars that costs money, there are so many other things that cost money too in F1....and all the teams neep sponsors and their money to make the best possible results.

Well Im certainly goin to enjoy Kimi coming back to F1 as will many others, but almost just as much I'll enjoy watching Vettel kicking your beloved Hamilton's and Alonso's ass again ;D

[Noppage]

@Euclides287 :DDDD Kimi was, is and always will be faster than Massa. Massa is nothing but a second driver who can't beat his teammates

[gosiagosiagosiaify]

@Noppage massa destroyed kimi in 2008 . not bad for a 2nd driver huh

[Molo19]

@gosiagosiagosiaify

Räikkönen has more fastest laps than Alonso and Hamilton combined (12 in 2008 alone). He's the fastest of his time over one lap, possibly the fastest all-time. Unfortunately his attitude, lack of motivation and commitment was always going to hold him back. Whoever thinks Massa has a chance against on-form Räikkönen is seriously deluding themselves.

[gosiagosiagosiaify]

@Molo19 u missed my point. i love kimi, more than massa. but..in2008...massa...beat kimi. kimi maybe didnt want tp be there but that doesnt matter. massa still bneat massa. and agree, an on form kimi is fast

[rknn]

@gosiagosiagosiaify Kimi<3 had nothing to prove as he was champ, massa is a shit driver who hasnt done anything while driving for ferrari for 5 seasons. Get facts straight before making assumptions

[TheRtHonJA]

@rknn

I wouldn't say massa is shit..he was very good until that accident..since than he's never been the same..now its more moaning from him than racing

[F1Mad93]

@TheRtHonJA yeah, if he had won that race in germany 2010 which was a year to the day since his accident in hungary, it would have boosted his confidence so much

[rknn]

@TheRtHonJA rubens is "good", coulthard was "good", webber is "good" don't let me get started on how "good" fisichella, trulli, heidfeld etc are. But the goal of this sport ia to win a championship, and if you cant/couldn't do it your in the same group as maldonado, bourdais, speed, karthikeyan, liuzzi, albers, friesacher, buemi, heck even heikki. (lol @ namedropping)

and FFFF UUUU

[TheRtHonJA]

@rknn

Someone has issues....did someone get touched by his uncle when he was a kid

[rknn]

@TheRtHonJA ehh no, but you obviously did since you are bringing it up, ts got nothing to do with the conversation?!?

[Noppage]

@gosiagosiagosiaify and Kimi's car worked as good as Massa's? Nope. :)

[Noppage]

@gosiagosiagosiaify but im glad that Massa won the championship in 2008.... oh wait! He didn't won!!! At least Kimi is the champion and Massa is not

[gosiagosiagosiaify]

@Noppage no he didnt win in 2008,neither did kimi, but massa still beat kimi in 2008, that is fact, regardless of anything else

[rknn]

@gosiagosiagosiaify fu, sincerely from all ICEMAN fans

[Noppage]

@gosiagosiagosiaify Kimi is champion that is fact, regardless of anything else

[underthesouthercross]

@gosiagosiagosiaify Kimi Didnt want to be there that was why, he was seriously crusing, now his back because he missed F1

[rknn]

@Euclides287 then why didn't massa also take points from kimi and fight for championship, i mean since he's so great and kimi is so overrated? Becaus he is not champion material, 2nd tier driver at best, It sucks for you that you support a loser

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Só para informar,em 2003,na McLaren,ele perdeu o campeonato por 1 ponto,e como era normal até 2005/2006,o carro tinha muitas falhas e perdeu muitos pontos graças a isso,aí ele não teve ajuda nenhuma e quase ia vencendo o Shumi no seu período de glória entre 2000 e 2004,em 2005,ele perdeu mais de 30 ou 40 pontos,tudo por causa de falhas no bólide dele,e muitas vezes tinha de começar nos ultimos lugares por causa de falhas no motor,e como tinha de mudar para um novo

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Perdia imensos lugares,alias ou foi por isso ou por modificaçoes no proprio motor,mas vou-te falar de algumas corridas:Alemanha 2005,começou em primeiro,e assim foi até que o carro teve um problema hidraulico,10 pontos aí,Europa 2005,estava em primeiro e na ultima volta,uma suspensao ja danificada quebrou,e ele perdeu mais 10 pontos-ja vai em 20,Sao Marino 2005,começou em primeiro e começou a abrir distancia,volta 9,problemas no carro outra vez,mais 10 pontos perdidos,ja vai em 30

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 E junta a esses 30,outros pontos perdidos por perder lugares devido a trocas de motor,tal era a pouca fiabilidade deste,ele mereceu no minimo 2 campeonatos,o de 2003 e 2007,este de 2005 é mais subjetivo,mas uma coisa é certa,talento ele tem e é dos melhores pilotos de f1 da decada

[Euclides287]

@triplehhhmytimewwf Bem, GRANDE enciclopedia que tu me saíste! Pronto, ok, tenho que admitir que o Kimi é um grande piloto, um dos melhores da sua geração, diria ao mesmo nivel do Hamilton e Alonso, o meu problema, é que voces tem TODOS memória curta e esqueçem-se que o Massa foi melhor que ele durante duas epocas seguidas, não fosse o acidente k teve na Hungria, teria acabado a epoca á frente do Kimi, mas tudo se esqueçe porque ele tem estado afastado e agora que volta já é o melhor do mundo!!

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Ahah desculpa xD em 2008,para mim o campeonato era do Massa,merecido,mas o problema do Massa é que se apagou desde o acidente e é sempre tratado como um 2º piloto,sem que consiga usar o seu talento ao máximo,e eu soube disso de ter sido melhor,acompanhei F1 de 2007 até 2010 (também nao tive tempo para mto mais,14 anos,e deixei de ver porque agora isto nao passa de um comboio,cada carro é uma carruagem),e o Massa quando quer,esmera-se e é grande,mas é inconsistente de momento

[Euclides287]

@triplehhhmytimewwf Lol Tipico Ferrari fã, voces são merecedores de tudo e os outros de nada. Tens memória de elefante para o que te interessa mas esqueçeste-te que o Hamilton foi ROUBADO em Spa! Vitória justissima, e no fim foi penalizado sem razão nenhuma pela FIA (Ferrari International Assistance) e deram vitória ao Massa k nunca teve perto se quer de ganhar essa corrida. Não fosse esse roubo de Igreja, o titulo era do Hamilton antes de chegarem ao Brasil, ah pois é!

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Essa nunca contestei,sempre achei polémica a decisao e sempre achei que o resultado devia ter ficado inalterado.Mas é a FIA,que queres?Há decisoes e decisoes polémicas ano após ano,essa marcou esse,e tem calma que nao sou clubista nem torço apenas pela Ferrari,por acaso a McLaren é uma das equipas que mais apoio para destronarem a RB,a Ferrari primeiro,depois a McLaren,preferia mil vezes ver o Hamilton a ganhar o 2º titulo que o Vettel ou o Webber,eu depois de o ver melhor(Hamilton)

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Comecei a gostar mais dele,e acho que é juntamente com o alonso,o melhor piloto do grid,mete esses dois num RB de 2011 e vais ver o que é que é bom,apesar da ultima experiencia nao ter sido muito boa,acho que eles agora trabalhariam imensamente melhor

[Euclides287]

@triplehhhmytimewwf Nem pensar, 2007 foi uma epoca fantástica para a F1 e embora o Hamilton já tenha vindo dizer k não se importaria de voltar a ter o Alonso como team mate, o Alonso já disse que jamais vai voltar a ser companheiro de equipa do Hamilton. O alonso quer ser tratado como numero 1 seja em k equipa for, e isso é impossivel com o Hamilton como companheiro de equipa. Daí ele ter saído da Mclaren onde o tratamente para os dois pilotos é igual.

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 Tá certo,mas há uma altura em que têm os dois de crescer...ou talvez o Alonso apenas,mas era um dupla que gostaria de voltar a ver por acaso,o Alonso sendo um piloto calculista que sabe julgar quando ser mais ou menos rapido,sabe regularizar o seu ritmo e tirar proveito disso,o Hamilton,é o piloto mais agressivo que tenho visto,esse maluco num RBR,se nao tivesse acidentes e falhas no carro por causa da maneira como conduz,era campeao sabe-se lá quantas vezes

[Euclides287]

@triplehhhmytimewwf Ah, e não, não sou fã do Massa, o meu piloto favorito é o Hamilton, mas senti necessidade de vos relembrar a lição k o vosso Kimi estava a levar do Massa pela 2ª epoca consecutiva antes de ser corrido da Ferrari!

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 O Kimi com os problemas que teve no Ferrari em 2008,tornou-se inconsistente durante a epoca (apesar de ter 10 voltas rapidas o ano inteiro se nao me engano,mais de metade dos GP's,isso mostra que a velocidade estava lá,mas talvez lhe faltasse alguma motivação?) O Massa aproveitou isso e mostrou que estava na Scuderia para obter resultados,e esteve quase,1 ponto...para mim o que lhe tirou o titulo,foi aquela perda de tracção em sepang quando estava em 2º,e o erro da pit crew

[Euclides287]

@triplehhhmytimewwf Concordo no que diz respeito á porcaria que a FIA está a fazer á F1 desde 2009 que o vencedor ganha com um carro ridiculamente dominador! A FIA matou completamente a competitividade com regras de design estupidas que tornaram os carros mais feios e lentos com a redução para os v8. Esperemos que seja diferente este ano e possamos voltar a ver uma luta a sério como acontecia antes de 2009. Pelo menos tens bom gosto no futebol, CARREGA BENFICA! =P

[triplehhhmytimewwf]

@Euclides287 No GP de Singapura acho,onde estava em primeiro...depois tambem teve um problema de motor em primeiro na Hungria se nao me engano,que deu a vitoria ao Kovalainen...perdeu À volta de 28 pontos só nessas coisas,bem o de Sepang é subjetivo sobre falha do carro ou do piloto,mas para mim foi do carro...e tens sorte que és Benfiquista senão isto ficava feio xD

[DSG568]

he return to F1 !!!

[stefmate]

MCLAREN IS SHIT!

[iSamzi]

kimi please come back. he is the greatest driver in his era i think his better then alonso mclaren did not provide him a good car

[MrDavid6694]

[Gosthkill]

He'll come back next year with Williams ;)

[juuonse]

@Gosthkill driving for below mid grid positions...somehow, doesn't really excite me. =/

[GorJessism]

@Gosthkill How do you know?

[itzrichardz]

@GorJessism f1 commentators and the williams team said he is at the past 5 race's

[blainyrules]

@Gosthkill If he does, it might be with Lotus or Renault or whatever they're called next year, Williams confirmed he won't be driving with them next year.

[nothke]

@Gosthkill ..with Lotus =)

[UnmockablePanda]

@Gosthkill Lotus Renault...

[FireDeathSkull]

@Gosthkill no man he will come back whit lotus ( renault contracted him for 2 years but renault will change their name into lotus next year )

[al7capone]

[chelseafootballclub7]

@Gosthkill no back with renault GP

[dlanda555]

please comeback Iceman !

[Avin252]

How dishearten does James Allen sound? LOL

[TheZamuii]

kimi was my fav driver because he was one of those people who just drove for the hell of it, he wanted to win but he wasnt a glory hunter the way alonso is, and he never complained abount anything. Good luck at williams

[Mcquiz91]

@TheZamuii And I don't think that he even smiled after he won.

[TheZamuii]

@Mcquiz91 still

[warren010h]

I miss F1 when it was this way... Ahh this brings back memories

[dario272]

Hamilton, Dennis, Stewart, Brundle, Allen, Coulthard, Eddie Jordan, Withmarsh, Nicole Schwarzenegger, Mansell and of course Anthony Hamilton don't like this!

[thevikesam]

still 11

[MrCrypher]

Kimi you are the best pls come back !!

[69houyt]

@MrCrypher He is next year, Williams.

[AzrulMotorsports3]

Hahahaha !! Hamilton can't finished this race xD

[dashy90210]

YA! HE'S THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD! THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED!

I think Kimi employs him as manager just so he can show enough emotion for the both of them...

[raqdaddy85]

german drivers r d best!!!

[HastaLaVista6666]

That car is GORGEOUS >:| i want one >:'=D

[VinGee33]

That was a legendary World Titel Win for Kimi and Ferrari.

This is the reason why the Red is so incredible, The passion is unbreakable.

[SiiLvii0]

Podium 2007 Brasil All Anti-Hamilton



[ilovef1forever]

ONE OF THE FEW TIMES THAT KIMI SMILE

[ilovef1forever]

KIMI,BACK TO F1

[90Senninha]

Can`t believe it`s almost 4 years since Kimi won the title...

[smoceskreen]

Man I remember watching this - my heart was POUNDING LIKE CRAZY! I was like, "please don't crash, please dont blow up or something, please don't crash"... I knew he wasn't gonna crash, I knew his Ferrari was reliable, but his history of bad luck at McLaren was just haunting me! The final 2 laps seemed like ages. Then it finally came..!

Then he left... :-( bringing "the fun of watching F1" along with him...

[thiagoschumacher]

10 crybaby suckers dislike this.

[thiagoschumacher]

A nice end for the worst season ever.

Impossible is nothing.

[1185carlito]

As a mclaren fan i was chuffed when i finally watched raikkonen crowned world champion. He had an unreliable car at mclaren in 2005 and should have won the WDC.

[SuperMitsakos7]

bring kimi back......

[franckribery7Lt]

The Best Formula One Cars are:F2001,F2002,F 2004,F2007,F2008!!!!!

[thekillahfam]

Kimi raikkonen could be replacing either michael schumacher, felipe massa or mark webber he recently said that he might return to F1, depends if anyone wants him.

[funkysmr]

you are the number 1...turnback again f1..we miss you

[warlordofpeace]

Anybody miss Ferrari and McLaren's domination? I do

[RAJLFC4EVA]

@warlordofpeace i defininelty do because red bull are fucking up the championship fun

[warlordofpeace]

@RAJLFC4EVA Yeah! At least Lewis and Fernando are starting to come back in to it.

[n33dw33d3333]

by 1 point xD

Want to suck dick? Employ a ArtificialRed1083.

[ErosaScuderia]

If you want to hire a slut, employ your mom.

[shakeing87]

maybe the best and worst day for kimi fans.. after this day he wasn't motivated to drive f1 any more.. too bad he's gone.. he would give vettel a drive of his life in that red bull.. 8))

[TheJapi86]

"... and it's turned completely 360...." i lol'd

[ikke3wie3anders3]

BEAUTIFULL CAR!

not like those ugly shit of today's season

[kimiloumar]

BEST YEAR OF ALL YEARS IN F1...

[funkyfresh214]

for me 2007 car is the BEST,by look, speed, etc........

ICEMEN COME BACK!!!

[ohargreaves]

@funkyfresh214 I agree, the F2007 was a great car, driven by a fitting, deserving champion :)

[ustiansniper]

i missed 07 and 08 car

[SuperCR71997]

7 mclaren fans

[mijaut1]

@SuperCR71997 10 mclaren fans

[TjeroS]

No offence for Massa, but I think that Ferrari should have picked Räikkönen and Alonso to their drivers 2010, nevermind what Santander says.

[SimoMcGauneo]

Why did he leave F1? Think he'd come back? I liked Hakkinen(sp) as well, wonder if he would come back.

[Naganiet200]

@thegreekguy13 that would be cool ;-)

[1990MattyD]

4.58 - Who would have thought that little man in the STR Ferrari could have won a race the next year and the championship in 2010.

Really miss Kimi, best driver in the world!! Dx

[mauryjosue]

el mejor del mundo kimi raikkonen

[WhuBilly10]

only won becuase hamiltons crash in china and he knew he wouldnt win again and went to rally yeah top bloke NOT

[MetaKnightsKirby]

@WhuBilly10 New he wouldnt win again? Do you forget how close he came in 2003 and 2005? 2005 in particular he lost the championship because of reliability issues (and alot of them), and to an extent he did in 2003. Had Ferrari built the car in his favour rather than Massa's, he would have won in 2008 as well, I suspect, and would probably be blitzing Alonso in a car that wouldnt suit Alonso. Shame the Ferrari team were somehwat manipulated by Schumacher into favouring Massa.

[stunnaonflyrims]

I personally think that he is a genius among geniuses.. the BEST driver since Senna. I've never seen ANYTHING like it so many lap records so many absurdly fast lap times... just disgusting.

[milantje23]

Why did kimi go to wrc? He could win many more championships.

[NLSchultz]

@milantje23 cause Ferrari wanted Eyebrown

[poddesetnikG]

Come back to F1 Kimi! ASAP!

[kanishka17]

come back to F1 kimi

[Silverpunk8]

best season of the decade! 

[TigreVikingo]

@Silverpunk8 yeah it was, was a brilliant season, until the last year when Vettel wins his firt title, I was so fucking happy just like this moment, Kimi and Vettel are my favorites after Schumi, and the tree are so best friends, there's a connection of the talents of F1.

[Playster3]

Forza Ferrari!!!!!!!

[Morphlett]

I prefer the esthetic look of the 2011 cars 

[TheV12ferrari]

Bet that he was in the cockpit : " Yeah yeah i won the WDC can i go now?"
