1st in World Endurance Championship; 1st in Le Mans 24 Hours; 15th in Formula E
Top 50 Drivers of 2022
Autosport's team of expert journalists got together to try to assess who were the top 50 drivers of 2022. Here are the results.

Buemi was probably at his best when it mattered most – at Le Mans. He was quickest of Toyota’s sextet over the first 16 hours. That means something because it really was nip and tuck between the two crews. It was a flat-out confrontation, even if the passes on the track were strictly choreographed from the pitwall.

There was no return to winning ways in Formula E for the former champion, however, thanks to an uncompetitive Nissan. But he did outperform his team-mate, unlike last year.
