Some said that the 2008 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP couldn't be topped? how wrong they were. From the season opener in Albert Park to the first twilight race at the new Yas Marina circuit of Abu Dhabi, the 2009 season had it all. A new set of regulations would rock the established order, while a new team would storm to two world titles in their debut season.
Jenson Button dominated the early part of the season, taking six wins from the first seven races. After recording Red Bull Racing's first victory, Sebastian Vettel emerged as Button chief rival. However, the biggest threat would come from across the Brawn GP garage. The veteran of the sport, Rubens Barrichello, took up the challenge of taking on Button in the race for the title. Mark Webber finally broke through into the ranks of Grand Prix winners with sterling performances at the Nurburgring and Interlagos, while Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton brought Scuderia Ferrari and Vodafone McLaren Mercedes back to their winning ways after a turbulent start to the season.

So you thought the 2007 FIA Formula One World Championship was close? Well 2008 was unbelievable! After 5,480 kilometres of racing the title was decided in the very last one.

It was F1 at its very best: Seven drivers won races, from five different teams, while four drivers headed the Championship standings. Kimi Räikkönen wanted to defend his title but it was team mate Felipe Massa who led Ferrari's charge. Robert Kubica emerged as a surprise threat. But it was Lewis Hamilton who got the job done.

Almost four hours of highlights. The best bits of what you saw and all the things you didn’t! Eighteen races of high-octane drama that took you to all corners of the world. Formula One’s historic first night race in Singapore showed Formula One at its dynamic best.

Nobody could escape misfortune. Watch multiple angles of the dramatic demise and the gripping comeback of each of the title contenders. Experience all the drama from exclusive pit lane footage, unique camera angles and the best from on board action. Five exclusive features take you up close and personal. Meet the key players in the new Force from India, flip through Fernando Alonso’s photo memories and share Lewis Hamilton’s Formula One ambitions before he put the dream into reality. Luck does not come into it…
