F1: Top 5 Races Of All-time at the Abu Dhabi GP

2012 - Leave Him Alone, He Knows What He's Doing!

Kimi Raikkonen claimed a very popular victory in 2012.

Kimi Raikkonen took a two-year hiatus from Ferrari in 2010 but returned in2012. The Iceman was back and had an outside shot at the title as he regularly dragged his average Lotus car up the grid to score podium finishes. However - much as it has during his return to Ferrari - the win had alluded him.

Yas Marina, a track which Raikkonen was not particularly fond of, would be the site of the first win of his return. Lewis Hamilton was the only one ahead of him after the first corner after he himself went from fourth to second. A mechanical failure for Hamilton after 18 Laps promoted Kimi to the first position.

Fernando Alonso pressured Raikkonen for the remainder of the race, the Spaniard desperate to win and take his championship lead back but the Iceman stayed cool to the finish to claim his 19th win in the sport. Leave him alone, he knows what he's doing.

P2 would normally go down as a great result for Fernando, but Sebastian Vettel's excellent P3 from the pit-lane was a real kick in the teeth for the Spaniard and this was arguably the drive which won the German's third world title.
