While much was made of Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes finale and Carlos Sainz’s last race for Ferrari, four likely permanent Formula 1 farewells also took place at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – and sadly for those involved, none of them went particularly to plan

Tickets being resold for over £1000 - some of which are for seats that do not even exist.
