#5 Raikkonen wins in Austin
With all the focus on Hamilton and Vettel battling for 1st. A little bit of the attention has been taken off the two Finns going at it for 3rd in the World Driver's Championship. And as we have gotten to know Kimi over the past 17 years, the Iceman just might perform best when there are as few eyes on him as possible.
With the Finn going to Sauber next year, he will already be looking forward to being able to perform without the high-pressure environment of Ferrari. And while Hamilton and Vettel are the focus in Austin, we see Raikkonen putting in a drive of his life under relaxed conditions to surpass them and get to P1.
Hamilton has famously never won a race after clinching the world title (in the same season), and if Raikkonen wins in Austin, Hamilton could still clinch the title if he outscores Vettel by eight points, starting his streak of not winning right in America. Either way, we see Ferrari pulling one back in Austin, albeit the wrong one for their liking.
