DOM of new page inaccessible after window.location.href value changes

I've a rating submission form. In form.onSubmit(), I capture the rating data, redirect to a "thank you page" with window.location.replace(url).

I'm trying to append the rating data in the new page. However, once the page is replaced, I can access the formData variable, but, DOM of the new page seems inaccessible.

Code:

const form = document.querySelector('form');

function handleSubmit(e) {
  e.preventDefault();

  const formData = new FormData(form);

  window.location.replace('thankyou.html');

  console.log(formData.get('rating'));
  
  // dom not accessible after replace
  console.log(document.body);
}

Any leads?

For future ref., it seems all content and attached resources are removed on page reload/redirect.
