Well done everyone!

This was the year after Hamilton was robbed in Abu Dhabi (2021) @gmarkj

Since then Mercedes have only managed to produce a car which is 3rd best on the grid and yet again Red Bull are running way with it!

Well done to everyone else some great scores there.

Sorry for the delayed response it's been a busy week for me, I'm very pleased I managed to get a thinker, quite liked the questions and on another day maybe I could have got more. 🏆
