DTS got me into F1 in 2020 and I think this season 6 is probably going to be the worst one yet. And as a F1 purist I hope it shakes some people off the bandwagon which honestly might have already occurred after last season. They’ll make some drama out of nothing to make season 6 interesting though.

Having said that, I think the 2024 season is going to be entertaining and I’m really expecting and hoping McLaren to make some real noise a year ahead of schedule and mess with Max, along with Merc and Ferrari.


Oh and get rid of Miami already.

some episodes i can already think of:

Vegas race shenanigans
Alpine getting rid of Otmar
Debris sacking
Danny Ricc return (probably get two episodes out of that)
Ferrari winning at Singapore
Alonso thriving at AM
Perez under pressure at RBR

Before 2021 Hamilton dominated and they still found storylines.

as a Max fan I am looking forward to it

As they should... what a terrible fricking name.

Cheapens the sport IMO. Now its like Nascar. "The BassPro Car takes pole"

The entire season should just be an ode yo Max after what he did last year. I want an entire insider episode based just on "DON'T frickING SPEAK TO ME WHILE I'M IN THE frickING BRAKE!"

Did he agree to be on it this season? I know last season, he refused to be part of it.

I’m pretty sure he only sat out one season. They were able to come to an agreement.

Some will depend on what races they documented.

IIRC they didn't have much of anything about KMag's pole at Brazil because they were not on site. And they generally have (did) a lot of Haas coverage due to Steiner's foksmash persona.

Chuck, now Lando. All these teams locking down their young guns before Red Bull can snatch them up to support Max. I imagine we'll hear something about Russell before too long.

Man, the walmart cash app payday loan car is getting its arse ripped on the socials.

Everytime they post something, every single comment is about the worst name ever

Reminds me of Haas shoving Maz down peoples throats and the feedback

No clue why Leclerc locked in for so long... Would have thought he would have given it one more year at Ferrari and then seen where RB, Merc, Maclaren stand with drivers.

I'm obviously in the extreme minority who thinks V-CARB has a ring to it.

Guys like Leclerc and Norris are way too ambitious and confident to sign up to be Horner and Max’s bitch.
