It’s not the first time that two Finn’s have shared the podium, in fact it’s happened three times previously: in Japan in 2007 and in Malaysia and Hungary in 2008, with Raikkonen and Kovalainen sharing the rostrum each time.

Raikkonen also picked up the fastest lap of the race for the 45th time in his career, establishing a new lap record for Sochi in the process. It’s the second time this year Kimi has scored the fastest lap – only Michael Schumacher (with 77) can boast more.

Lewis Hamilton saw his eight-race podium streak snapped, as well as his record for always finishing on the podium in Sochi. Will he be back on the rostrum in Spain? Worth considering that the three-time world champion hasn’t been off the podium for two successive races since 2013…

Fifth place represented Max Verstappen’s best result in Sochi, but team mate Daniel Ricciardo’s early DNF means that Red Bull have only scored points with both cars in one of the four races this year.
