Nick Heidfeld completed the 2008 Formula One season without a single retirement and ended up sixth in the driver’s standings. He drove for BMW Sauber and helped the team secure third place in the constructor’s championship.

In 2008 we witnessed a closely fought battle between Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa for the championship trophy, with the former securing the title by a single point. Even Kimi Räikkönen and Nick’s teammate, Robert Kubica were in the mix for a while, both ending the year by scoring 75 points.

Nick finished behind the duo with 61 points and finished runner-up in four out of the 18 Grands Prix organised that year.
