One year after suffering a horrifying crash at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, BMW Sauber’s Robert Kubica made a winning return to Canada in 2008, securing his maiden F1 victory ahead of team-mate Nick Heidfeld in a wild race that saw Lewis Hamilton take out Kimi Raikkonen in the pits when he braked too late at a red light. Sadly, this would be Kubica's sole F1 win, as a 2011 rallying accident put an end to his single-seaters career.
