Memorable moments of 2022

On the track:

- Youth prevailed at the Daytona 500 as well, with rookie Austin Cindric taking the checkers. Marcus Ericsson, a former Formula One back-marker, became the second Swedish driver to win the Indianapolis 500 by holding off some of the biggest names in North American auto racing.

Off the field:

- In Phoenix, Sarver made news for all the wrong reasons. He was suspended one year and fined $10 million on Sept. 13 by the NBA over workplace misconduct that included racist speech and hostile behavior toward employees. Sarver then announced his intention to sell the team.

- Snyder had problems of his own in the nation's capital with a House committee investigating hundreds of instances of sexual harassment by men at the top levels of the organization. The franchise was fined $10 million and Snyder hired a firm to look into his sale of the team.
