The final race of the 2022 F1 season is almost upon us, and with a few details left to sort out between teams and drivers, make sure you know where to watch the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on TV in the UK, USA and Australia.
The Yas Marina Circuit held its first Formula 1 Grand Prix back in 2009, and 5.281km track shot itself into the history books of F1 following the 2021 title decider between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen.
While we will be spared any such drama this time round, there is still lots to play for. Ferrari and Mercedes are going head-to-head for second place in the Constructors’ Championship, and will Verstappen let Sergio Perez past as he goes for second in the Driver Standings?
