The awarding of Max Verstappen’s 2022 F1 world championship title was the very definition of unceremonious.
Pierre Gasly has earned the support of several of his fellow drivers after receiving penalties for speeding during a red flag period at the Japanese Grand Prix.
Formula 1 does not seem to learn as we almost saw a repeat of what happened at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix in 2022 - in similar conditions. Only this time around, the driver was lucky to have escaped with his life.
Sergio Perez and fellow F1 drivers were left furious after a recovery vehicle incident put Pierre Gasly’s life at risk at the 2022 Japanese Grand Prix.
Red Bull’s Sergio Perez described the incident that saw Pierre Gasly almost collide with a tractor as «the lowest point we’ve seen in the sport for years». The Japanese Grand Prix had barely got started before Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz spun out in extremely wet conditions, leading to an advertising hoarding hitting Gasly’s vehicle.
Remember the start of the 2022 Formula 1 season? We bet you do because everyone had the wool pulled over their eyes that Ferrari would win this year's Drivers' and Constructors' championships.
The father of Jules Bianchi led the widespread condemnation of a recovery tractor being out on track as Pierre Gasly suffered a near-miss at the start of the Japanese Grand Prix.
Max Verstappen said it was a "crazy feeling" to retain his Formula One world championship Sunday in dramatic fashion after winning a rain-shortened Japanese Grand Prix and then seeing his nearest rival Charles Leclerc relegated to third by a five-second penalty.
