All good things come to an end. All bad things come to an end too, with the Abu Dhabi marking the finish of the 2022 F1 Losers League. Stop reading this waffle and take a look at the final season standings now.
The newly sacked Mick Schumacher topped the driver Track Points at the Yas Marina circuit, bringing his terrible tenure to an end. We'd love to meet this Mick Schumacher entourage that Martin Brundle mentioned. Meanwhile, Mercedes topped the constructor Track Points in Abu Dhabi, although without their Beige Flag, those plaudits would have gone to the terrible twosome of Haas and Williams.
Not sure what to do now. Take up knitting? Go nude snowboarding? Invade a hat museum? Sculpt a lifesize model of Logan Sargeant from earwax and sellotape? Sigh. [twiddles thumbs for three months]
Read on for all the Track Points in Abu Dhabi.

WHAT'S NEXT?
The next F1 Losers League championship will trundle off the starting blocks on 5 March 2023. Entries will open in the new year. Thank you to the teams that participated in this year's competition. You all added absolutely nothing and we are disgusted at your woeful lack of talent. We love you all.
We'll be posting to more social media next year: Twitter, if it's still around, and back on Facebook and Instagram. We're planning on possibly disastrous Track Points tweaks, adjustments to make team actions more frustrating, and a new, cruel bonus point system that will tighten up the scores like firmly clamped nipples.
Keep an eye on our socials - and this website - for when we announce entries opening for 2023. Happy losing, everyone.
