Lewis Hamilton may have just missed out on claiming his fifth world championship in the United States, but fans were given a thrilling race in Austin, Texas

With Sebastian Vettel finishing fourth Hamilton needed a win to secure the title, but by only managing third the battle now goes on to the next race in Mexico

Instead it was Kimi Raikkonen, who took his first victory in five years, tasting the winners' champagne as Sportsmail takes a look at eight things you may have missed from the Circuit of the Americas

Kimi Raikkonen may have been under pressure to win the race to save Sebastian Vettel's thin title hopes, but he had his own motives too

The victory, his first for Ferrari in nine years, is likely to be the Finn's last in the sport as the 39-year-old will be moving to the slower Sauber team ahead of next season

Raikkonen clearly didn't care much for the championship.In the podium room afterwards, the Finn (right) innocuously asked Lewis Hamilton if he had won the title with a completely straight face

The Brit looked stunned but kept his answer short as he replied 'no', an awkward silence followed

Max Verstappen put in a storming drive from 18th on the grid to finish second, but he paid a big price for it

Having had to hold off Hamilton in a frantic final few laps, the Red Bull driver showed off a worn-down boot after the race as evidence of his frantic work behind the wheel in claiming a deserved podium

Mercedes were so keen on minimising Hamilton's time loss on the circuit after his first pit-stop they were instantly on the radio telling his team-mate Valtteri Bottas in front not to get in the way, informing the Finn 'not to hold Hamilton up'

The Finn, having had good practice in Russia, expertly moved on the start-straight

There was a curious incident for TV viewers watching the grand prix.Early on in the race shortly before Hamilton's pit-stop, race commentary was interrupted by a race fan at the track making constant car noises in the background as each one passed on the circuit in front of them for nearly a full lap

Liberty Media took the controversial move to ban grid girls from the pre-race proceedings this season, with the Monaco Grand Prix an exception

There was no sign of them in Texas but the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders helped provide the grid glamour by welcoming the likes of Hamilton onto the pre-race drivers' parade, It was yet another miserable day for McLaren, with Fernando Alonso (left) retiring early on after suffering damage in a collision with Lance Stroll

But Stoffel Vandoorne's season went from bad to worse as he was given a black and white flag for continuing to exceed track limits — effectively the final warning before receiving a disqualification

This was the first time that a race held on October 21 has not decided a World Championship

The title had previously been decided three times on the date, with Niki Lauda pipping Alain Prost by half a point in 1984, Prost then lost again to Senna six years later

Inside the First Palestinian Museum in the U.S. | NowThis World - Duration: 7:31.

Palestine to me is the starting point.

It's where I came from.

It's my heritage.

My cultural starting point.

It's people. It's land. And it's a lot of injustice

For many many many years, we watched in the US and the West

in general as the mainstream media have kind of painted Palestinians

in a way that kind of dehumanized them.

We want to educate the public about Palestinians.

We want to do it through the arts.

My story as a Palestinian is not unique,

it's that of millions of other people.

I'm Faisal Saleh, I'm the founder and executive director of Palestine Museum U.S.

I remember Palestine in the '50s and '60s,

I left in 1969, two years after the '67 war.

There was a lot of anguish over the loss of home, loss of land.

When people left, they thought it was going to be like 2-3 weeks

and everything is gonna be settled and everybody would go back.

But that hasn't happened and it's been 70 years.

Originally, my family comes from a village called Salama,

and our family had been there for generations.

In 1948 they had to leave and they lost everything.

In '69 I received a scholarship to come finish the last year of my high school in the U.S.

I've been in the U.S. for 49 years.

In a way I'm American and I'm like any other American here,

and I work and pay taxes, and socialize with people here,

and yet at the same time I'm able to relate the same way to Palestinians.

And somewhere in the middle here there's this

no man's land that's kind of troubling sometimes.

The thought of doing something for Palestine became in the forefront for me.

I really wanted to do something since I had not done anything for a long time.

I began an intensive effort to contact Palestinian artists in Palestine and around the world.

And we had some office space that was vacant for a long time and it was really in bad condition.

We decided to take some of that space and repurpose it for the museum.

In June of 2017 I started work on this project.

We opened in April of this year.

We're at the Palestine Museum U.S., we're in the town of

Woodbridge, Connecticut. And we're about a 2 hour train ride from New York City.

One of the biggest obstacles was to get the art to display,

the majority of the art here is on loan from the artist.

A lot of them came from Gaza.

Some from Jordan, and some from the U.S. also,

it's wherever there are Palestinians, and there are Palestinians everywhere.

But a significant number is from the West Bank and Gaza.

It's difficult shipping from there, you still have to get it through

the Israeli checkpoints, and the borders,

sometimes it took two months to get some shipment out of there.

We have artists who work under extreme conditions,

trying to show that despite all the negatives, all the obstacles,

they're capable of producing masterpieces of work.

It's 100% Palestinian museum,

it's all about Palestine and Palestinians, Palestinian ideas,

funded 100% Palestinian, currently I'm the only source of funding for the museum.

Most people come to the museum are coming from a distance,

they're driving one hours, two hours, sometimes three hours to come here.

For Palestinians, it's like a shrine.

They come here and they tell us, this is the only place that talks to us.

And it's the only place that belongs to us.

It's hard find places where I'm represented,

and I think coming to the Palestine museum made

me prouder of who I am and who I will become.

It makes me feel like I'm still connected to

Palestine even though I'm not there right now.

I had a wonderful experience coming to this museum

and getting to connect with a part of my history and past that I don't normally see.

The idea of a Palestine museum in the U.S. made me so happy.

When Palestinians and Americans visit the museum,

they're really awed by what they see.

They're awed by the photographs from the 1800s and 1900s, they're awed by the paintings.

The drawings on that wall are from the children of Gaza

after the 2008/2009 attack by Israel on Gaza.

As part of the treatment of the children, they were asked to draw what they saw.

And this is some examples of some of the drawings that made it to the U.S. from there.

We have artifacts like these clay pots that are more than 100 years old.

They were used Palestine for storing olive oil.

There's an installation there that shows an ammunition box full of rocks.

It really highlights the asymmetry of the conflict.

There are some paintings that show the Holy Lands.

What we've done here was successful.

But it has a small reach, given the physical location.

We want to take this and branch it out to the 12 largest cities in the United States,

and we want to do it over a couple years.

Our objective, really, is to change the discourse,

from talking about political conflict, talking about war,

terrorism, to talk about the human side of the Palestinians.

We have the artists, we have the poets, we have the writers,

we have the sculptors, and that we are capable of excellence.

It's in your heart, you can't really forget.

Every Palestinian, they have it in their heart.

They know what Palestine is.

And they know how much of a wound that is.

And they're aching to do something about it.

Lewis Hamilton: Mercedes chief reveals Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel US GP concern - Duration: 3:16.

Lewis Hamilton: Mercedes chief reveals Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel US GP concern That is the concern of Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff. The Brit starts at the front of the grid after finishing 0061 seconds faster than Vettel - who will start in fifth due to a penalty - with Raikkonen in second ahead of Hamilton's Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas.  The Finn will start on the quicker and grippier ultra-soft tyres, compared to the super-softs of Hamilton, Bottas and Vettel in what will undoubtedly pose a huge threat to Hamilton's hopes of winning a fifth successive Grand Prix in Austin.

Ferrari's Vettel must finish second if Hamilton does pass the chequered flag first, or else the 2018 championship will go his rival's way. Hamilton only needs to outscore the German by eight points to decide their battle although Ferrari have shown strong form while Stateside having been well below in the last three rounds.

And Wolff is concerned that the Ferrari pair's pace down the straights will be dangerous, with even Vettel himself admitting he was shocked by how "surprisingly close" the Prancing Horse were with Mercedes in qualifying. Wolff said: "It's so close between the top three. I'm happy today, but my thinking today always goes to tomorrow.  "We're lacking a bit of straight-line speed, and it's going to be very difficult to defend against the Ferraris attacking us - that's my worry.     "I've always said you cannot write them off. You guys have been saying they have imploded, it doesn't go like this.  "It has always been very close all season between Ferrari and Mercedes - and it is going to continue until the end of the season.

"It's about getting the best possible race result and if it doesn't happen tomorrow for us, then we will try again in Mexico and try and get one step closer." Hamilton, meanwhile, welcomed the competition as he insisted that he would relish more consistently-thrilling qualifying sessions like that of yesterday's.     "They were obviously very quick," Hamilton told Sky Sports F1 after qualifying.  "This weekend, we're pretty much on a par performance-wise.

"As Seb [Vettel] said, they've gone back on some of their potential updates and the car is better in the sweet spot and for us, we've not brought updates here so we're on max downforce level here. "That's great to see us so close and still I'm hopeful for the future to have more teams, more qualifyings like that, that are closer, but with more cars involved.  "That's got to be the ultimate goal for Formula One.".

Bahia Honda State Park (Calusa beach and Bahia Honda Rail Bridge), Big Pine Key, Florida (USA) - Duration: 4:10.

Bahia Honda is one of the many islands of the Florida Keys archipelago, a chain of coral islands and reefs in the southeastern United States.

U.S. 1 (the Overseas Highway) crosses the key at approximately mile markers 36-38.5, between Ohio Key and Spanish Harbor Key 12 miles (19 km) west of Marathon, close to the west end of the Seven Mile Bridge.

The island is virtually uninhabited, being home to the 524-acre (2.12 km2) Bahia Honda State Park. Founded in 1961, the park occupies most of the island.

The channel at the island's west end is one of the deepest natural channels in the Florida Keys.

The park is 212 hectares and offers 4 km of beautiful sandy beaches, including Calusa Beach on the Gulf of Mexico and Sandspur Beach on the Atlantic Ocean.

With these two beaches, Bahia Honda State Park offers the most beautiful beaches in the entire Florida Keys.

The beach or rather the view here is actually the highlight of the Bahia Honda State Park.

In the shade of the large palm trees you enjoy the view of the beautiful white sand beach, the old railway bridge of the Flagler Oversea Railroad, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Bahia Honda Bridge of the Oversea Highway.

The Overseas Railroad (also known as Florida Overseas Railroad, the Overseas Extension, and Flagler's Folly) was an extension of the Florida East Coast Railway to Key West, a city located 128 miles (204.8 km) beyond the end of the Florida peninsula.

Work on the line started in 1905 and it operated from 1912 to 1935, when it was partially destroyed by the Labor Day Hurricane.

In Bahia Honda State Park there are also changing facilities and sanitary facilities at Calusa Beach.

The usual barbecue facilities for the USA are available as well.
