María Fernanda Mugica La Nación (Argentina) 04/10/2020

5/5
It picks and probes at all the salient issues of F1, exploiting an amazing degree of backstage access and brilliant high-def action photography to... knit together a sequence of penetrating short documentaries. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Santa F @RT84029357 02/25/2025 If last season was just a little insight than this season really starts to dig into more of the f1 world and community around it, the ups and the downs. You feel as though it’s happening right now, right here See more Lasse L @RT62932725 12/01/2024 A slight improvement on the first season with the broadened team focus. See more Esteban C @RT03454761 03/10/2023 what a fucking exciting sport!!! i mean this season was even better than the last one and that was a high bar to surpass! more drama, more speed and more coverage of the championship made this one more wholesome and amazing to watch. it had downfalls from a few competitors, very big highs from others, a feeling of familiarity with the current leads and a lot of changes around the grid that caused the tension and adrenaline to go even further. williams and haas kept being in crisis, renault and mclaren got a glimpse of victory from time to time, pierre was demoted from red bull back to toro rosso and the top three teams went head to head one again to try and change the story that has been repeating for quite a while now. with each episode i got more and more deep into to the point of (healthy) obsession. i've never been so into a sport ever in my life, and i really hope this feeling can continue further on. new year (2020) is going to be a tough one to rewatch, but definitely an interesting one, not only because of the pandemic but also thanks to the changes that are about to take place, both in the rules and within the drivers/teams. after all, a new season starts, the points go back to zero and it's game on to all, once again :))) See more Ahmad M @ahmadmelhem 01/27/2023 Playing at the threads, it still succeeds in delivering a more or less insightful track of events. See more 04/06/2022 Not as good as season 1. I focus on "some" characters rather in the real story. See more neil a @RT46109310 03/17/2022 Continues the great storytelling from season 1!
