McLaren not going to get that 4th spot, are they? Think they'd need to score 20 more points than Alpine this race.
On the other hand, if Vettel can finish 7th then Aston Martin would beat Alfa Romeo - bit too much of a fairy-tale ending to his career to actually happen though.

Logan Sargeant secures superlicence and Williams F1 2023 seat
Logan Sargeant has secured an F1 superlicence and a Williams 2023 race seat after the final round of the F2 season. The 21-year-old American finished fifth in the F2 feature race in the Abu Dhabi finale to seal fourth place in the championship standings. Along with his bonus points for completing FP1 outings for Williams, and for keeping a clean driving record, Sargeant has reached the 40-point requirement to earn a superlicence and therefore qualify to race in F1.Williams announced in late October that Sargeant would replace Nicholas Latifi and race for the team next season, providing he qualified for a superlicence. Following the conclusion of the 2022 F2 season, Sargeant’s place on the F1 grid as Alex Albon’s new teammate at Williams is now assured.

F1 race winners to receive new FIA medal starting from Abu Dhabi GP
The FIA medal will be awarded as part of the podium ceremony to mark the driver's achievement, ensuring drivers can keep them as a personal record of their achievement. Although drivers are awarded trophies on the podium for winning races, many of them are then kept by their teams depending on their contractual agreements. Drivers can often then have replicas made should they want the trophies for themselves.The FIA medal will be a "unique personal memento to commemorate their outstanding achievement" by winning the race, and is also intended to highlight the history that each grand prix victor will become part of. Sunday's race in Abu Dhabi is the 1,079th Formula 1 grand prix, and will be engraved accordingly as a record of the driver's achievement. Medals made a return to F1 in 2020 when they were awarded to the top three finishers of the sprint races on Saturdays, along with wreathes in a throwback to podium ceremonies of previous eras.
Back in 2009, former F1 ringmaster Bernie Ecclestone wanted to introduce a medal system to decide the world championship, awarding the top three with gold, silver and bronze medals. He planned for the championship to be decided by whoever had the most gold medals instead of on a points system, saying anyone who lost out as a result would "have to try harder next year." But the format was eventually scrapped despite Ecclestone's efforts to try and get it back under consideration for 2010.

Was going to give up and go for a run instead, but now I need to find out what happens with Perez/Leclerc at the end.

Bit of a shit season IMO. Roll on next year when Merc will hopefully be more competitive, McLaren will hopefully improve further and Ferrari employ another team principal who can continue to make us laugh.

🇪🇸 my spirit is crying for leaving
Well that's it for another season. Very disappointed by Max last race, and his attitude recently has been disappointing too. I've lost some of my support for him.
Sorry Checo didn't get his 2 in the WDC, he deserved it. But so did Leclerc.
Sorry to lose Danny Ric, but he'll be back.
Next season should be interesting.
