- FIA’s decision over Abu Dhabi GP to be revealed on 18 March
- Season-opening race in Bahrain takes place just two days later
Lewis Hamilton faces a two-month wait to discover the outcome of the FIA’s inquiry into the conclusion of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix which denied him a record eighth world title.
Formula One’s sporting federation revealed on Thursday – nearly five weeks after Max Verstappen was controversially crowned champion – that their decision will not be announced until 18 March. The 2022 season-opening race in Bahrain takes place just two days later.
