38-year-old Lewis Hamilton recorded his worst championship finish in F1 last year after the Silver Arrows.

The Mercedes Formula 1 team have reverted to a black livery for the new Formula One season.
Hamilton and team-mate George Russell took the wraps off their latest machine at their Silverstone launch on Wednesday.
38-year-old Hamilton recorded his worst championship finish in F1 last year with the Silver Arrows. And the grid's once-dominant team will hope the move back to black, which carried Hamilton to a record-equalling seventh title in 2020, will take them back into championship contention.
Hamilton encouraged Mercedes to paint their car black for the 2020 and 2021 campaigns to send out a defiant anti-racism message. The move to drop their traditional silver livery for the new season though is for performance reasons this time.

From Eoin Morgan, the English captain, to one of the most enterprising all-rounders in Cricket, Chris Morris, quite a few international players decided to end their international careers this year.

Year Ender 2022: From Federer, Serena to Benzema, Hazard, here are all the sportspersons who retired

From Roger Federer to sensational Jhulan Goswami... we have put together the list of sportspersons who called it a day this year. Take a look.


From Eoin Morgan, the English captain, to one of the most enterprising all-rounders in Cricket, Chris Morris, quite a few international players decided to end their international careers this year.

Tennis
Two of the greatest tennis players of all time, Serena Williams and Roger Federer, announced their retirement this year. While the 23-time Grand Slam winner, Williams played her final game at US Open, the Swiss Maestro, who has 20 Slams to his name played his last at Laver Cup.&nbsp;
Another notable retirement in the sport was that of Ashleigh Barty. The 3-time Grand Slam Champion shockingly retired from tennis at 25 years of age while she was ranked No. 1. The Australian quit the sport less than two months after winning the Australian Open.&nbsp;
Football
While a lot of footballers hung their boots this year, some decided to only retire from international football.&nbsp;
French ace Karim Benzema, 35 who could not take part in the World Cup due to his injury decided to end his international career. He announced his international retirement soon after his side lost the World Cup final to Argentina after a tough fight in a mouthwatering final. Apart from Benzema, Spain's Sergio Busquets, and Belgium captain Eden Hazard also announced their international retirement.
Gerard Pique &amp; Blaise Matuidi were the two footballers who retired from the sport. The multi-trophy winner, Pique played his last match at Camp Nou, which was also his 616th appearance for Barcelona. Matuidi, 35, who had helped France win the World Cup in 2018 decided to call it a day after he did not find any takers this year. Apart from them Argentina&rsquo;s Carlos Tevez; England&rsquo;s Jermain Defoe, Mark Noble and Jack Wilshere; Belgian footballer Mousa Dembele also decided to call it a day.
Cricket&nbsp;
Cricket saw a lot of big names retiring in both men&rsquo;s and women&rsquo;s cricket.
In the Indian women&rsquo;s team, legends Jhulan Goswami and Mithali Raj retired from all formats of cricket this year. From the men's side, Suresh Raina and Robin Uthappa retired from all forms of the game.&nbsp;
A lot of international stalwarts too called it quits this year. From Eoin Morgan, the English captain, to one of the most enterprising all-rounders in Cricket, Chris Morris, quite a few international players decided to end their international careers this year. New Zealand&rsquo;s Ross Taylor, Windies powerhouse Kieron Pollard, and Mohd Hafeez of Pakistan too stepped away from all formats of cricket this year.&nbsp;
A lot of players chose to retire only in a particular format, like Ben Stokes, whose shocking ODI retirement triggered the discussion around the burdensome cricketing calendar. Apart from him, Aaron finch too decided to bid adieu to the 50-over format.&nbsp;
In women&rsquo;s cricket, Australia&rsquo;s Rachel Haynes, South Africa&rsquo;s Mignon du Preez, England&rsquo;s Katherine Brunt &amp; Anya Shrubsole; New Zealand&rsquo;s Amy Satterthwaite and Katey Martin; and Deandra Dottin of West Indies retired.&nbsp;
Formula 1
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in November was the last race of the season and also the last race for four-time F1 champion Sebastian Vettel. The German driver closed his career with a 10th-place finish, while Max Verstappen collected his 15th win of the season ahead of Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez.
&nbsp;

4-time Formula 1 Champion Sebastian Vettel will retire from the sport at the end of the season.
Vettel will leave Formula 1 as one of its most successful drivers, having won four consecutive world titles with Red Bull from 2010-2013.
Only Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher & Juan Manuel Fangio have won more titles than the 35-year-old.
The Aston Martin driver said while the decision has been difficult for him, spending more time with family was a priority for him. Vettel in recent years has become an outspoken campaigner for climate change and other environmental concerns.

The German driver has decided to retire even as there were reports that Aston Martin wanted to keep him for next season.
7-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton took to Twitter after the news broke. Hamilton said that while it's been an honour to call Vettel a competitor, it's an even bigger honour to call him a friend. He ended his tweet with a 'Love you' for Sebastian Vettel.

Red Bull fined $7 million for breaching Formula One's cost cap

Formula 1's governing body, FIA, has imposed a $7m fine and a 10% reduction in car development time for a budget cap breach by Red Bull.

Tap for details. 

The fine has to be paid within 30 days and the car development time restrictions will be applied in 2023.

The governing body of Formula One has imposed a $7 million fine on Red Bull as punishment for overspending the 2021 cost cap by $1.8 million during Max Verstappen's first championship season. They will also be penalised with a 10% reduction in permitted aerodynamic research, the FIA confirmed on Friday at the Mexico City Grand Prix.&nbsp;
The decision, however will not satisfy Red Bull rivals who had called for harsh penalties ranging from stripping Max Verstappen of last year's title, a reduction in future Red Bull spending, and any punishment that would hurt the team competitively.&nbsp; The fine has to be paid within 30 days and the car development time restrictions have been applied for 2023. Red Bull has already won the second F1 title with Verstappen and their fifth constructors' championship last weekend, where Verstappen registered a record-equalling 13th win of the year.

Sunday&rsquo;s win tied Verstappen with Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel for most in a season with three races still to go

Max Verstappen passed Lewis Hamilton to earn a record-tying 13th win of the season at the United States Grand Prix on Sunday, and delivered a victory to honour the memory of Red Bull team founder and owner Dietrich Mateschitz.
As a result, he also clinched the constructors&rsquo; world championship for Red Bull. The win continued Verstappen&rsquo;s run of dominance in 2022. He had already clinched the season championship in Japan two weeks earlier. Sunday&rsquo;s win tied him with Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel for most wins in a season with three races still to go.
Verstappen&rsquo;s race was nearly undone by a rare slow pit stop by Red Bull midway through the race that dropped him well behind Hamilton. But Verstappen fought back to pass last season&rsquo;s rival for the championship on lap 50 of 56.
Verstappen then had to hold off the pestering Hamilton through the final laps as his team warned him not to exceed track limits that would draw a penalty.

Audi will make their Formula One debut in 2026, the Chairman of the Board of Management at Audi AG Markus Duesmann announced at an unveiling of a showcar in Belgium on Friday.
However, the German manufacturer has not confirmed whether they will just supply power units or run their own F1 Team.
Audi enter the top tier of motorsport in an era with greater emphasis on sustainable fuels and an increased electrical component in engines.
From 2026, the electric power output for the drive trains, consisting of an electric motor, battery, control electronics, and a combustion engine, will increase. The electric motor will then be nearly as powerful as the combustion engine and the highly efficient 1.6-litre turbo engines will run on advanced sustainable fuel - which Audi says was a prerequisite for entry into the series.

A deadly accident during the British Grand Prix could have cost young Chinese driver Zhou Guanyu his life. But thanks to a titanium device, called Halo, the 23-year-old Alfa Romeo driver walked off unscathed.
Not just this, the motor racing fans witnessed another scary incident earlier on Sunday at the Silverstone track. In F2, Williams test driver Roy Nissany survived after Dennis Hauger's vehicle landed atop his car. Commentators exclaimed Halo did its job!
But, What is this HALO device that also helped Lewis Hamilton escape tragedy last year and before that saved Romain Grosjean's life in 2020?
The Halo technology was made mandatory in racing cars, back in 2018.
It is a 9-kg curved Y-shaped bar made of lightweight Titanium. Placed on the car's cockpit, it works as a protection system over the driver's head.
Though the crash helmets were effective in preventing head injuries, this device restricts any large objects entering the car's cockpit. It has the ability to save the driver in case the car flips or lands on another.
The governing body for world Motorsport, FIA, after its research highlighted that the survival rate of drivers increased by 17% due to the Halo technology. As per the international body, the sturdy bar which is the 'strongest part of the car' has the capability to take the weight of 2 African elephants (6000kgs) and can deflect a large suitcase at a speed of 225 km/hr.
Although, when introduced, the technology did not get a warm welcome, but it has proved to be a life-saver.
Hamilton, the Mercedes driver who in 2021 had a near-death experience at the Monza GP, credited Halo for saving his life; In 2016, he had called it the, 'worst looking modification in F1 history'.
At the Bahrain GP in 2020, Grosjean's car split into two and immediately caught fire, but the French racer limped off with some minor burns on his fingers. He later called the device 'ugly, but life-saving!'

After many drivers, including 7-time world champion Lewis Hamilton complained of back pain due to 'porpoising', Formula 1's governing body the FIA said it has taken steps on safety grounds to reduce the high-speed bouncing.
The FIA has now issued a technical directive to teams setting out how it plans to tackle 'porpoising', which is a ground effect philosophy, where air is sucked underneath a car to pull it down onto the track at high speed.
It has though caused massive back pains to the drivers, with Hamilton describing the Azerbaijan Grand Prix as the "most painful" he had ever experienced, and many of his rivals have also raised concerns.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has voiced his objections in the past and said "the easiest thing is to raise the car", but the teams most affected are reluctant to do so because of the effect it would have on performance.
