After a strong Abu Dhabi Grand Prix where Charles Leclerc claimed second in the Drivers’ Championship and Ferrari claimed second in the Constructors’, the Scuderia sealed a brilliant 1-2-3 in the post-season test at the Yas Marina Circuit.

2022 is finally over for Lewis Hamilton, as the seven-time World Champion completed his final laps in the dreary W13 in the post-season test.
