A prominent voice against the show is Max Verstappen, who refused to be a part of the show for several seasons as he felt Netflix created fake narratives to benefit their audiences.
However, after sitting down with Netflix, Verstappen has now cleared the air and will feature on the fifth season of the docuseries that is to start in about a month’s time.
David Coulthard, on the other hand, has no issues with Netflix’s treatment of the drivers, claiming that most of them are boring outside the sport. The Scotsman believes a dramatic style of editing is needed to bring some spice into the docuseries.
Speaking at a Red Bull event in Dublin, Coulthard said:
Former Red Bull driver praises Lewis Hamilton
Former Red Bull driver David Coulthard has praised Lewis Hamilton for his mature behavior after the 2021 Abu Dhabi GP. The Briton was denied a record-breaking eighth title win by Max Verstappen on the final lap of the race at Yas Marina.
Hamilton was en route to breaking Michael Schumacher’s title record in 2021 when a controversial late safety car allowed Verstappen to take his first title in the sport.
While the conditions under which Verstappen won the title were controversial, former driver David Coulthard lauded the Mercedes driver’s maturity in the face of adversity.
The Scotsman, however, suspected that a younger Lewis Hamilton might have handled the situation differently and claimed that the Briton’s maturity was probably a result of his vast experience in the sport.
Speaking at a Red Bull event in Dublin, Coulthard said:
With Mercedes reportedly fighting at the front in 2023, it will be interesting to see whether Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen go head-to-head later this year.
