I haven't heard too many people that have watched it say negative things. It's obviously dramatized, but overall it's done nothing but bring more people into the sport, which is great.

Alex said it well. F1 was at a time as a kid my favorite sport in the world. Hugely dissipated yet watching the show brought me joy. It is well done, entertaining, and one learns a lot about the sport.

I actually think Adrian said it better. It is renewing interest in the sport and although it is reflective by nature, the behind the scenes views appeal most of all to me.

Great series that originally I struggled to get wife to watch but now she has it bookmarked in her favourites on Netflix.

I’m glad Alex and Chris started discussing it here as it prompted me to watch it in a more timely manner.

Man, I didn't get to watch it live. That was unreal.

1). I absolutely love that Perez called it this weekend saying "I finally know how to drive the car" - He's such a talent and exactly what RedBull needed to be able to take the championship fight to Mercedes.
2). Vettel on the podium is awesome, so deserving and finally showing that he still has it.
3). Man, I was so bummed for Verstappen, but Hamilton's mistake was great if you wanted to see the championship fight continue.
4). Pirelli are going to be under heavy fire after this one. Clearly, bringing one step softer compound to this race was not right. It will be a while before we get the full story on the "why" those tire failures were happening, but will it be a factor in upcoming races since tire allocations are done way in advance.
5). My boy Norris, overcoming a questionable 3-grid penalty, dropping three more spots at race start to come back and get a top 5 finish.

Nice to see red bull win a strategic play against Mercedes for a change...I thought Mercedes and Hamilton had one more dominating season before Red Bull took the reins but it looks like its go time for Red Bull now...
