Stars of sport flock to the F1-season ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as Pep Guardiola, Patrice Evra, Usain Bolt and England's triumphant T20 cricketers soak up the sun on the paddock before Max Verstappen clinches victory

As Max Verstappen claimed his 15th victory of the season and the 2022 Driver's Championship, some of the world's biggest sporting superstars have flocked to Abu Dhabi to catch the final race of the Formula 1 season.

After a rip-roaring year of motorsport action, history was made in the United Arab Emirates with the Dutch driver claiming his second world title, while Sebastien Vettel was seen doing donuts on the track before he hangs up his helmet after a stellar career behind the wheel.

Plenty of big names were in attendance, including Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, who seems to be enjoying some time off during the World Cup winter break.
