Questo mese non si parla di gare, non ci sono argomenti principali, news, video o altro.
Questo mese che chiude il 2022 l’abbiamo usato per premiare tutto quello che abbiamo visto passare in questi ultimi 12 mesi.
Avevamo fatto una cosa simile nella puntata di ottobre quando avevamo fatto una top5 degli atleti US, ma questa volta allarghiamo orizzonti e categorie e dispensiamo premi a destra e a manca.
Se non volete spoiler, non continuate a leggere oltre questo paragrafo perchè stiamo per riportare l’intera lista dei premi
