#3 R25: Recording a sensational world championship with Renault

Winning the world championship for any driver is what matters the most. In Fernando Alonso's case, the peak of elevation came in only his third season in the highest annals of the sport.

The 2005 F1 world championship would always be remembered for Renault's R25 emerging as a thorn in the path of Michael Schumacher and his Ferrari. While there were the likes of Button and Raikkonen in there too, they weren't able to dominate proceedings the way El Nino did!

To this day, it can be said with great certainty that Alonso's feat, that of becoming the last world champion of the V10 era- a feat he gained driving the Renault R25- is one that's treasured and valued a great deal.

The feeling of putting his car on top on seven occasions might have been something great for Fernando; something that couldn't have been put into words then. Right, Fernando?
