Easy to see why Max refused to be part of DTS for a time. He gets villainized pretty regularly by the normal media and Netflix turns that to 11. In the beginning I thought it was cool that something was bringing new fans to F1. Now I believe it does more harm than good, causing unnecessary grief for drivers as well as causing conflict within the fanbase.

Drivers are real people with real lives, not actors. Netflix intentionally blurs that line for profit by spinning false narratives for views. It’s ridiculous and has spilled over into press conferences and commentary, and it can’t end soon enough. None of them deserve to have lies told about them directly, through omission, or through deceptive editing.

Netflix can get fucked.
