On race day I wasvery privileged
to be inv ited int o the Mercedes
hospitality area above the
pitlane, where the guestskindly
let me get in b etweenthemo n
the bal cony to ge t a different
view ofthe post-race rituals.
I feel this image sums up
Valtteri’s season in many
ways. He drove brilliantly and
won, then ran over to hug his
mechanics, but he instinctively
realised that this wasn’t his
rodeo. He had thepresence
of mind to break off and goto
congratulate his team-mate,
who had just won the world
championship and was having
a quiet moment of reflection in
the cockpit of his Mercedes.
