Despite the initial premises, the 2022 World Championship cannot be compared to that of last year, which ended on the last lap of the last race, giving emotions and heated controversies in almost all the Grand Prix. This year the regulations have produced cars that no longer struggle to follow those in front of the corners, which has favored overtaking even on “difficult” tracks, but at the level of the fight for the title. the shuffling of cards did not produce the desired effects, thanks to a Red Bull that has been able to develop perfectly and because of a Ferrari that threw out too many points due to errors in strategy, drivers or reliability problems. Of course, Max Verstappen will not agree: for him one title is as good as another, but from the point of view of fans 2021 should be the non plus ultra of the title fight.
It is surprising, however, that these assessments are made by Lewis Hamilton. The “loser” (amid a thousand understandable controversies) of Yas Marina’s challenge wanted to launch a provocation to the Dutch directly from Singapore. For the Briton, his rival’s dominance has taken away the spectacle of the current season, although he himself has won two world championships with three races to spare: “I’m sorry for the fans, because for everyone and also for us, last year, getting to the end was an intense emotion. It’s never nice when the season ends early, even when I experienced firsthand the experience of closing the games in Mexico or Turkey. For you, as a single individual, it’s great, but for actual sport it’s not spectacular. I am really grateful to have won the 2008 World Cup with 17 seconds left. Obviously last year more or less the same thing happened, but in reverse. Let’s hope the future is a little better“.
