DO YOU REMEMBER

when F1 broke with tradition? At the inaugural GP at Austin last year,

podium protocol was broken when Pirelli chose not to hand out caps.

Instead, they chose to present each of the top-three finishers (Lewis

Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso) with Stetson-style hats.

DO YOU REMEMBER

Jaguars last race in Formula 1? The 2004 Brazilian GP was their final

grand prix as Ford pulled the plug on their F1 operation. During the race,

Mark Webber was battling for tenth place with team-mate Christian Klien,

when they collided at the first corner.
