A third place in the drivers championship in 2004 has been his best year so far, although his first race win did not come until the middle of the 2006 season. He finally became world champion in 2007, winning it by 1 point in the final race of the season. By Raikkonens high standards he had a lack lustre 2008 season, although finally finishing 3rd in the Drivers championship.
