Drive To Survive series 6

Post by Pondrew » Tue Feb 13, 2024 5:12 pm

Coming to a Netflix near you. 23rd February.

Best programme on TV IMHO...can't wait! :D
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Does Mrs PVR like a bit of swearing, a bit of driving, and lots of political two-facedness?

She is a driver so the first two are covered there, and she is British so that covers the last part. :lol:

I will give it a try and report back

Just remember that each series covers the previous F1 season, so the early series are a good few years out of date.

You really have to be interested in F1 for it to be relevant, otherwise it's just another documentary about millionaires.

Gunter Steiner (Haas team boss) is the star of the show....he is comedy gold!

From series 2 it really comes alive.
The radio chat you do not hear in normal TV coverage is brilliant :thumbsup:

I tend to binge watch the whole series in a day or two. It's addictive TV for me. I love it! :)

Your favourite Guenther Steiner has now left of course, so soak up last year's cursing.
I used to have two boys and a girl. Now I have two Men and a Woman. :?

F*** F*** F*** it's Bull sh*t :rofl: Guenther was hilarious, shame has gone now.

Finished season 6 last night, really fascinating. Lewis going to Ferrari was played down though :?
Fred Vasseur and Lewis could be a interesting combo in 2025, hopfully :rofl:

Only on episode 4 so far but looking as good as ever.
Guenther is just the best!
James Vowles at Williams, though! What a dweeb! :lol:

  • Guenther's had enough Gene
  • Hamilton's not interested in a move to Ferrari (yet)
  • James Vowel err Vowles of Williams F1, err Williams Racing has worked out his baseline caffeine parameters through a regression analysis
  • George Russell is not shy about calling the Mercedes a POS
