#3 Raikkonen wins World Championship by one point (2007)
Before the Brazilian Grand Prix in 2007, if you had put your money on Kimi Raikkonen winning the World Championship, people would have called you crazy.
Lewis Hamilton looked set to become the first ever F1 driver to win the title in his debut season heading into the Brazil GP, but it all went wrong for the Brit at the start. A gearbox problem ensured he couldn't get away as he would have liked, and while McLaren fancied their chances with Fernando Alonso too, the Spaniard was unable to get ahead of the Ferraris.
This played perfectly into the hands of Kimi Raikkonen who used the help of his partner Felipe Massa to stay ahead and ensure he wins the race. Hamilton finished seventh, giving the Iceman an unlikely one point Championship victory. Simply wow.
