LEWIS HAMILTON was the ONLY driver not to vote for drivers’ Driver of the Year.
Great rival Max Verstappen came out on top after retaining his title in 2022.
Lewis Hamilton decided against voting for drivers’ Driver of the Year
The Dutchman dominated and came an incredible 214 points ahead of Hamilton, who finished sixth in the standings.
As a result, the seven-time world champion was voted as the third best driver of the year.
He was joint with team-mate George Russell.
But Hamilton decided against submitting a vote of his own – the only driver to do so.
Charles Leclerc, who was Verstappen’s closet challenge in the 2022 season, was runner-up.
Despite the snub, Hamilton was all smiles in his latest Instagram post.
The Formula One star is enjoying some time away from the track after the worst year of his career.
He’s spending some quality family time while on a skiing holiday.
And the 37-year-old looked cheerful as he uploaded a selfie with his niece and nephew.
Hamilton’s dad Anthony was also in action on the slopes.
The caption read: “Verified Hope everyones holidays have been happy.
“Sending you and your loved ones love, light, and Uncle Terry’s “moves”
.”
