Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen names his three worst races of 2022

Two-time Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen did not enjoy all the race weekends of 2022, especially not Singapore.

Despite not finishing in Bahrain or Australia in the opening rounds, the World Champion opted for Monaco, Silverstone and Singapore as three of his worst weekends of the year.

Qualifying in Monaco saw Verstappen in fourth after a spin for teammate Sergio Perez halted him from completing a final flying lap - which is believed to have caused in-team tension between the drivers later in the season.

His race at Silverstone was hindered after running over debris early on, causing floor damage and dropping him to the lower reaches of the points after running in the lead. In Singapore, his car was later under-fuelled in qualifying, leaving him on the fourth row of the grid.

Few low points

But given how well his season went overall, there were slim pickings for his low points of the 2022 season.

"Monaco, Silverstone... I would go for Singapore. That was just a terrible weekend. Everything went wrong," Verstappen explained on Viaplay's F1 Talks, quoted on his official website.

"From the set-up of the car on Friday, the issues with running the car, not enough fuel in qualifying, and then everything went wrong in the race. Sometimes you just have those weekends. Singapore was a weekend to forget."

Verstappen went on to win 15 of the 22 rounds of the 2022 season, a record number of victories for any driver in a single F1 season, eventually taking the title by 146 points and with several races to spare.
