Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Recap Nov 22, 2022

Show notes

Hard to believe the season has come to a close — tune in for our reactions to Abu Dhabi! While it didn’t have the same level of drama as last year, it still gave us much to discuss, from the Charles-Checo battle to the very last lap, a silver lining for Ferrari in an otherwise plagued season, another dominant drive from Max, points for Vettel and Danny, and end of season standings (including tie breaks!). We get into the many headlines of the past week, including the final 2023 line up. Finally, we say a bittersweet goodbye to Vettel, Ricciardo, Schumacher and Latifi, at least for now.
