Which driver took BMW Sauber's only Formula One win at the 2008 Canadian Grand Prix?

Robert Kubica took BMW Sauber’s only Formula One win at the 2008 Canadian Grand Prix.

Kubica won the race on 8 June 2008 at Montreal’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, finishing ahead of his BMW Sauber teammate Nick Heidfeld. The result was BMW Sauber’s first and only Formula One victory as a works team, and it also became Kubica’s sole Grand Prix win in Formula One.

The race turned on a chaotic pit-lane incident. During a safety-car period, Lewis Hamilton failed to see the red pit-exit light and hit Kimi Räikkönen’s Ferrari, eliminating both championship contenders. Kubica avoided the incident, completed his stop and moved into contention. He later passed Heidfeld and built a decisive lead, producing BMW Sauber’s first one-two finish.

Kubica’s victory also carried major championship significance. He moved into the drivers’ championship lead for the first time, while BMW Sauber jumped ahead of McLaren into second in the constructors’ standings. Sebastian Vettel was racing in the event but was not the winner, and Jacques Villeneuve had retired from Formula One before this race.
