Another user commented:
"Spoiler alert: cars changed to an ugly shape, Red Bull won pretty much every race, not a lot of drama happened, Ferrari hired clowns for strategic planning....."
Although Max Verstappen won the driver's championship well before the end of the season at the Japanese Grand Prix, there is still a lot of content to be covered in the show. There were the issues with Mercedes, the Red Bull cost cap drama, and Kevin Magnussen getting his and Haas' first pole position for the Brazilian Grand Prix.

Another Twitter user commented:
"Is it actually about the 2022 season this time, or did you feel the need to invent drama where there wasn’t any and ignore the drama that really was there like last seasons?"
