    Uneventful conclusion to the season. The race came down to strategy but kudos to LeClerc for a great drive. Congrats to Ferrari for second place in the constructors championship (ugh I hate to say that ;) ).  Danny Ric to Red Bull as a reserve/stunt driver. Looking forward to 2023.
    Kind of sad watching the "wily old fox Seb Vettel"'s last race. Leaving RBR was the worst thing possible for his career yet the best thing possible for his personality.

    Maybe bad for his career, but not for his bank account.  Hard to say no when Ferrari offers you 37m a year plus free Ferraris.
    Very good point!

    Binotto out at Ferrari.  What an agonizing shit show it is to cheer for that team.

    The Yankees of F1. Too many embarrassing moments in 2022. They definitely improved in 2022.

    I think Drive to Survive starts Feb.24th, I better finish last season lol.

    What do you think about adding teams?
    I generally say adding two more teams would be o.k, but some issues would have to be addressed. 
    I think some tracks (Monaco) may be too small for more cars.
    Also I would like to see some type of luxury tax system so a more competitive field is established. If the new teams are going to always be a couple of laps down,  why bother.

    I am all for more competition but totally agree with you that some tracks are too small.  It is never good to see the entire field get lapped by three or four lead cars. I do not have a great solution as the deep pockets will always be able to outspend, even if there is a tax. It is the main complaint with F1. The top three teams seem to always produce a race winner.

    I thought it was a bit boring, but yes, exciting to see Alonso fight for a podium.  Watching him pass the mercedes was surreal.
