2022 Drivers
Learn about each of the 20 Formula One drivers of the 2022 season!
Since there are 10 teams in Formula 1 and each team has 2 drivers, there are a total of 20 drivers on the grid. That means being an F1 driver is a BIG deal. Only 20 people in the world are chosen to be in the most elite driving league in the world, so that is something to think about when getting to know these drivers.
Even though drivers are teammates and work together to earn points for their teams, the drivers also are competitive within themselves to get the most points and improve their position in the drivers standings.
Many of them come into F1 because of their talents, and they have been go karting and racing all their lives. They can start out in F1's feeder teams and move up through F3, F2, etc. to get to F1. Some drivers can also pay their way into F1. Many drivers hope to become World Champion one day, or at least a Grand Prix winner, but with the competition and power of the top teams in the way, many drivers find it difficult to achieve such things.
