It’s the season finale, and we’re unpacking all the drama from the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix! McLaren finally ended their 15-year drought and clinched the Constructors’ Championship – proving you don’t need to be a works team to win.

We’re also saying goodbye to a few drivers and diving into the grid’s post-season shakeups. Plus, the Hamilton-to-Ferrari testing saga continues – is it happening or just hype? And of course, we’re dishing out our Driver of the Year, Team of the Year, and favourite moments from the season.
