S7 E8: Spa 2009 - Raikkonen denies Fisichella and Force India
About this episode
Force India went from a team that hadn't scored a point to claiming a pole position and a podium finish in one incredible weekend at the 2009 Belgian Grand Prix. But should it have been a win? Edd Straw and Ben Anderson join host Glenn Freeman to look at Giancarlo Fisichella's incredible weekend, and how Kimi Raikkonen's Ferrari denied a fairytale result.
There's also talk of Jenson Button's mid-season wobble in his title-winning season, his Brawn GP team secretly doing its deal to be taken over by Mercedes, Red Bull chasing Mercedes engines, Luca Badoer's dreadful stint in place of Felipe Massa at Ferrari, and how the Renault 'Crashgate' scandal was finally exposed during this weekend.
