Drive to Survive FACES MAJOR BACKLASH After Verstappen JUST EXPOSED Their FAKE DRAMA!

■ The 7th season of Drive to Survive had some very poor depictions that have been commented by the F1 drivers, and it looks like the show just cannot make a perfect compilation when it matters the most. With Verstappen-Norris’ rivalry being kind of ‘twisted’ after the first win of the Brit in Miami, and with the Mercedes situation where the Spa GP has been narrated differently, is this posing a serious threat for the show’s longevity? And if so, what are the drivers’ thoughts on it?

The show got me into the sport, but now watching it feels unnecessary. just watch the races and interviews it’s more entertaining

[bastiaan-st]

The most annoying thing of all is the fact there was plenty of good genuine drama to make an epic DTS S07. They've made drama where there were none and left out drama when there was real tension. It seems the DTS crew is just a film crew, not the ones who understand F1, which is a huge shame.

Once we found out they're splicing audio and putting it over different clips to make things spicier i knew it was trash.

[MRHEMI]

I also felt that they wasted a whole episode on Christian Horner and his personal life. No one’s cares about that!

[Ehm]

DTS has always been Mercedes water carriers and anti-Max and Red Bull, so it will always follow these guidelines. I’ve watched 1 season and will never watch another. Been an F1 fan for 52 years and don’t need to watch that rubbish.

DTS also did not cover the Qatar GP when Norris received a 10 second "Stop/ Go Penalty" which dropped him from P2 to P15. They really botched on quite a few significant events...

Drive to survive is no more for real F1 fans than The Love Boat was for serious maritime enthusiasts lol.

They tried so hard to make it look like Max and lando hated each other. But then there would be small clips where Lando would by flying on max’s pj while Albion, Russel, etc all flew coach. Then after the race he laughed and seemed excited to be flying back with Max even though he just beat him by almost 30 seconds.

[Poonithara]

I've spotted so many mistakes/shortcomings although I haven't it all.
Verstappen's reaction to Lando's first F1 win has been shown very poorly. The rain soaked race at Inter Lagos showed only the Alpine drivers being on the podium. Verstappen's brilliant drive from the back of the grid - arguably the greatest F1 drive ever - was not shown at all. Hopefully it's there in an episode I've yet to see. If it's not included somewhere in Season 7 it would be a travesty

I love the past 21 Max, shame how media presents him

[LnWlfBlck]

I haven’t seen all the episodes for this season yet, but I did notice a few times so far where conversations seamed out of context, just to make there appear to be drama where there was non, or at least not as much as they wanted.

[issy]

I honestly think that the real f1 fans don't even watch drive to survive

[abdeldorado]

Netflix is pure crap, not just in F1 but in everything they touch.

[Paul_AstroEsthetics_]

Haven't even finished watching it yet and seeing those fallacies, they need to be corrected and Netflix needs to stick to the facts instead of creating more "drama".

[leonkessel]

yeahh fuck drive to survive.. the only purpose that show has is to remind me that the new racing season is about to start

[stevemurray]

Amazing drive to survive allowed by the FIA and their unreal deviation to the story but FIA won’t allow any bad language.

[shelliehalper]

Max is all about the Truth and so are we, only the truth!

[brianhampson]

Lollypopman covers f1 better than dts
And its hilarious

[Dontbestupid]

Netflix wasn't going to make George look bad --- now if things were reversed you can rest assured we'd have heard all about the Verstappen-George feud.

[bishopoftroy]

Why would i watch that crappy soap opera? I want to see the sport, not behind the curtains he said she said.
