Despite its significant constraints and shortcomings I've come to embrace #DriveToSurvive with season 5. It's done the job. Kudos to that, but it may be time to rethink how @F1's growing fanbase is engaged.

Fairly certain that’s the owner’s objective.

I’m disappointed that the @netflix @F1 series “Drive to Survive” portrays the sport as violent and life threatening when @jeantodt and the @FIA have gone to great lengths to put safety at the forefront. Modern day F1 is an awesome study in power and grace, not thrills & spills.


A class act all the way.

Beautifully creative liveries that celebrate, promote and inform. And they actually make the halo look good!

The formula should be simple at its core: more power than grip. More driver skill than engineered aids.

Formula 1 should slash downforce levels by a minimum of "40-50%", argues Toro Rosso's Franz Tost: autosport.com/f1/news/140928…

Formula 1 is on fumes and racing to remain relevant. While all eyes are on the show there are interesting maneuvers shaping up behind the scenes. thepaddockmagazine.com/formula-1-is-o…

Facebook hired a private lobby firm to create fake news and start antisemitic rumours about its critics. I have also personally been the target of Facebook’s PR operation - and trust me - they are dirty. theguardian.com/technology/201…

Could not agree more. @F1 deserves a clearly defined plan that all stakeholders understand and connect with. It demands informed, engaged leadership that understands the culture as much as the numerous unique & common agendas. Unfortunately, deal makers do not make great leaders.

Or... @F1 is failing on many levels: not least its broken rules/regs structure that requires a winning team to find circa $0.5bn per season to compete in top six

THIS is dedication, responsibility and accountability in action. Would you walk 20 miles to keep your commitment?

While I fully expect @F1 to lay this at the feet of ⁦@W2Optimism⁩ (and their E&O underwriter) this is deeply troubling as it sheds light on mgmt practices and is costly in terms of the damage it causes to brand and reputation across various markets. telegraph.co.uk/business/2018/…

If the objective is more passing in @f1, wouldn’t a narrower front wing with sophisticated, but cleaner aero regs be preferable to a wider wing prone to damage and loss in the event of close contact during increased passing events?

Pros journalists would argue that that is, in fact, their job. Report with a sharp and critical (and usually informed and uniquely experienced) eye. The fluffing belongs to the marketing dept. That is what they get paid to do.

It's hilarious how some #F1 'journalists' take it personally when (valid) criticisms are made about the series & it's owners. It's amateur. A journalist should hammer & shame F1, if it is warranted, regardless of whether they are a fan. The two are NOT mutually exclusive

From the @nfl’s Roger Goodell today: “We... will keep our focus on the game and the extraordinary athletes who play it -- and on our fans who enjoy it.” Notice which came first, @f1.

So @ESPN decides to dump the @F1 pre-race show, “On the Grid” 10 minutes into it. Nicely done. #F1

Crap @ESPN #F1 race broadcast will drive US viewers to the @F1 TV Pro product as soon as it becomes available. First create the pain, then provide relief. Genius plan. #AusGP


PaddockAccess reposted

Far too many commercials during @F1 #AusGP, @ESPN. And poorly timed. Fix it. #F1
