A series about Formula, pretty close to [Drive to
|
||
|
Survive](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8289930/?ref_=fn_al_tt_4), although the
|
||
|
later focuses more on the pilots and this one focuses more on the team, the
|
||
|
tech and the car -- and a bit on the driver.
|
||
|
|
||
|
While more interesting than "Drive To Survive" by showing the whole aspect of a
|
||
|
Formula 1 Team like a living organism, it falls short by looking at only one
|
||
|
team: McLaren. There was a great potential to make more seasons, each season
|
||
|
focusing on a different team and their fight in the year -- and the only team I
|
||
|
can think of that would have a problem with someone showing what they do is
|
||
|
Ferrari; all others would welcome some exposure.
|
||
|
|
||
|
So, while interesting, it was killed too soon and not explored fully.
