#3 He's a Grand Prix winner
It happened over ten years ago, but Kubica is not only the sole Pole to drive in Formula 1, but he's also the only man from Poland to win an F1 race. In 2007, Kubica had a horrific crash at the Canadian Grand Prix, and he was lucky to escape with relatively minor injuries, but a year later at the same event, he'd score Sauber's only win to date.
Sauber had produced one of the best cars for the 2008 season, but Kubica qualifying in second was still a very impressive feat. When the race began on Sunday, Kubica held his second place but he couldn't catch leader Lewis Hamilton.
Adrian Sutil's retirement would greatly shake up the order, as a bizarre pit-lane incident meant that both Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen would retire. Despite this, Nick Heidfeld (Kubica's teammate) would lead the race after the restart but Kubica pulled off a great pass on the German after the first pit-stops.
Despite the track surface breaking up throughout the race, Kubica didn't put a wheel wrong all of Sunday, he kept his cool on a baking hot day in Montreal to stun the F1 world with this victory. He's one of just seven drivers on the 2019 grid to have a won a race in the pinnacle of motorsport.
