The last race of the 2021 season had an amazing course. Five laps before the end of the race, he was several seconds behind Lewis Hamilton, but in the end it was the Dutchman who enjoyed the victory, beating the Briton on the last lap.

The winner of this season ended it with 395.5 points. The second place went to 387.5 points due to the loss of victory in the last lap. He finished the season in third place (226 points).
Kimi Raikkonen, for whom the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix was his last career appearance, was 16th in the bottom of the grid. however, he did not collect a single point, but he did not take the last place. He overtook Nikita Mazepin, because the Russian never finished the race higher than the Polish driver, although there were as many as 19 of them (Kubica two).
Mazepin finished in fourteenth place once, as did Kubica. The Pole, however, had another fifteenth place, and the Russian was only seventeenth in the second best race.
