Valtteri Bottas became Formula 1's 107th different winner of the world championship on Sunday, and the fifth citizen from Finland to conquer such an honour.
Only eight Finns have ever raced at the pinnacle of motorsport, but with 47 Grand Prix wins, Finland is the fifth most successful nation in the history of F1 behind Great-Britain, Germany, Brazil and France.
F1i takes a look at the first time Finland's flying racers cracked the nut.
The father of 2016 world champion Nico Rosberg won the Swiss Grand Prix at Dijon in 1982 after 49 races in Formula 1.
In a year of tragedy and disaster, marked by the death of Gilles Villeneuve and Didier Pironi's career-ending accident at Hockenheim, Williams' Keke Rosberg - the original flying Finn - won just once in 1982
But with Pironi out of contention his consistency was enough to hand him the world title at the end of the year in Las Vegas, edging out the unfortunate Frenchman by just 5 points.
