Last ten years at Yas Marina Circuit has produced some memorable moments. Let us take a look.
1. Kimi Räikkönen is known as the comeback king for his extraordinary return in Formula 1. Räikkönen took a sabbatical of two years away from the racing and returned with Lotus for the 2012 season. Proving his doubters wrong Räikkönen nailed the race defeating the defending champion Lewis Hamilton.
2. Vettel, Mark Webber, Hamilton and Fernando Alonso were the only strong contenders in 2010 race. Even though Vettel did not lead the championship throughout the season, he took the lead past Hamilton in the final race. Lewis Hamilton and his teammate Mark Webber could not get past Vitaly Petrov which gave Vettel an edge over these two drivers and as a result he took the 2010 championship while beating the odds.
3. Sebastian Vettel dominated the 2011 season and took the pole position for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. He has duly maintained his form throughout the season only to be disappointed by a punctured tire. As he left off the circuit, rear puncture ended his race.
