Oh, Canada.. Yes, that Hamilton mistake in the pit lane. Demolition Derby part 2, and another race where Kimi had fought back to be competitive, and a crash ruined it. This time it was Hamilton crashing into Kimi and some might say it was poetic justice for Kimi's crash into Sutil in Monaco.
But yes, this then brought us that amazing end to the race, hoping and wishing for Kubica to hold on without any fateful pace cars or other incidents, so he's get his maiden win. And he did win it.
That was brilliant.. First win for Kubica, the first ever F1 winner for Poland, and the first ever win for BMW (and former Sauber) as a constructor. Congratulations all around.
Even more amazingly, both Kubica and BMW took the lead in the championship. And poor Quick Nick Heidfeld, has ever a second place felt so empty as his that day, when he brought the first-ever 1-2 for BMW but this was not his day. Nick had led the race, and with several incidents and pace cars, a little bit of luck his way, and Heidfeld would have been the first-ever BMW winner. As Ferrari and McLaren were bumbling this weekend, it was destined to be BMW in any case..
Congrats Robert and BMW !!
