First report from November 22, 2022, 1:10 p.m.:

Abu Dhabi – Logan Sargeant was able to collect enough points for his super license in the last Formula 2 race of the season.

He will succeed Nicholas Latifi at Williams.

Sargeant is the first US driver in Formula 1 since 2015. Mick Schumacher's last chance for a cockpit is gone - it's quite possible that he will drive as a reserve driver for Mercedes next season!

Abu Dhabi GP in the live ticker: Mick Schumacher to Williams?

Haas ends the collaboration with Mick Schumacher after this Formula 1 season.

They prefer to rely on Nico Hulkenberg.

"We have to pull Mick with us.

But we need someone who pulls us along," which is exactly what Günther Steiner expects from Hülkenberg in the coming season.

After all, the German has significantly more experience than Mick.

The last vacant cockpit is still at Williams, but the seat has already been promised to Logan Sargeant.

However, the American still has to score enough points in Formula 2 for his super license.

So in the race he has to be at least seventh for that to happen.

So for Mick there is still a little bit of hope for a possible cockpit in 2023.

Last Grand Prix for Formula 1 star Sebastian Vettel: farewell dinner and alpacas

299 races, 57 pole positions and 53 wins.

This statistic adorns Sebastian Vettel's CV and the numbers will probably remain the same for the time being.

With his Aston Martin, victory in the last race of the season seems unlikely.

Vettel has already been given a fitting farewell by the other drivers with a group meal.

The entire grid was out and about on Thursday evening (17.11) and left the restaurant with a hefty bill, which Lewis Hamilton is said to have paid in full.

For Sebastian Vettel it is the weekend of farewells and gifts.

The Sky Germany team also presented the German with a rather unusual gift.

They want to give him several alpacas for Vettel's farm, with which he could go hiking.

"Hopefully I don't get spat on," he joked at the end of the interview.

But before he takes care of the alpacas, he has to do one last race!
