It is Force India’s first ever points in their F1 career, and what a way to bring them in! Force India’s Giancarlo Fisichella finished the Belgium Grand Prix less than a second behind race winner Kimi Raikkonen in a dramatic race which even saw Rubens Barrichello’s car on fire moments after after he went past the finish line!

Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium – Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen on Sunday won the Belgian Grand Prix at the Spa-Francorchamps course to give his team their first victory since last year’s Brazilian GP. Italian Giancarlo Fisichella, who started from pole, gave the Force India team their first-ever point by finishing a sensational second, while German Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel was third.

Fisichella looked to have the pace to compete with Raikkonen despite the Finn’s Ferrari car packing the kers system, but Force India team owner Vijay Mallya will walk away from Spa a happy man tonight having seen his team finally break their 29-race duck.
