The FIA has revealed its 2022 nominations for 'Action of the Year' which includes a spectacular moment from this year's Formula 1 season.

The special award, which will attributed at the FIA's annual Prize Giving in December, recognizes specific racing moments from several FIA-sanctioned series.

Among other thrilling on-track moments, the governing body has selected a fierce qualifying battle in Formula E between Alexander Sims and Jean-Eric Vergne, as well as a pair of overtakes by British young gun Oliver Bearman in an F3 round at Zandvoort as two of its nominees.

But Lewis Hamilton is also in with a chance to seize the award thanks to his mesmerizing double pass on Red Bull's Sergio Perez and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc at last summer's British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

The Action of the Year award was created by the FIA in 2014, and has honoured Max Verstappen's skills on four occasions.

Last year, Fernando Alonso was the recipient of the accolade thanks to his staunch defense against Hamilton in the 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix.
