No offence to Pierre Gasly but

He doesn't have the charisma

i'm excited for the new season

He's so boring.

As much as I slag this show and think it has exacerbated the problems in F1 (Lewis fan girl I ain't ever getting over AD21) it has been a good route in for people, and as a lifelong fan it's been great to chat to more people in my life about the sport when they had no interest in it prior to watching the show.

I've never watched before DtS but now I'm obsessed. F1 podcasts, f1tv subscription, I have my own fb group where no one posts but me but it's a good repository for info which I love

[vodkaveritas]

Love it!

It's how I got into it, one of my best friends is a lifelong F1 fan and despite her best efforts I never got into it until DtS, I got invested in the people and then subsequently super into the racing and more technical side of it

The reason Daniel worked so well is not just his willingness to be on camera but also his tumultuous career trajectory in such a short span.

Whatever I’m soooooo excited for tomorrow. Going to get a nice dinner and dessert going after work I can chill. And Max is not shit but since he’s appearing this season, I wonder if they’ll tone down the fabricated edits since that’s why he chose not to appear in previous seasons.

Hope there’s a Seb talking head

Appaz he *is* but not much

This is the first time I'll be watching all of DTS bc some of my friends got into the show so now we'll be watching together (they still won't watch an actual F1 race though 😒). I'll fight with the producers if we don't get a Sebastian Vettel episode bc that's all I'm living for right now.

Okay honestly I cannot wait because now motorsport is coming back - F1, IndyCar, MotoGP, GT Racing!!!!!!!!

I know NASCAR and Formula E have been in their seasons but they have weird schedules lol

[kthxrawr]

I have missed yelling at cars
