Sebastian Vettel's harsh verdict on Netflix’s Drive to Survive

Sebastian Vettel has revealed he is no fan of Netflix’s Drive to Survive, admitting he found the F1 docuseries “a bit weird” when he watched one of the early episodes.

Vettel brought the curtain down on his glittering career with Aston Martin at the end of the 2022 season, having become the sport’s youngest four-time World Champion during a highly successful stint at Red Bull by joining Ferrari.Asked if he allows his young children to watch Drive to Survive, Vettel told Swiss-German publication Neue Zürcher Zeitung: “They haven’t asked yet, but I’ve only watched one episode myself, back when the series came out.

“So you’ve got a sport which has presented itself as this level playing field where everyone is in with a shout on the Netflix series, but actually the sporting/entertainment side of it is the technical meritocracy that we all know so well. “Fans around the periphery, fans who have been initially switched on to Formula 1, for those fans to then be converted into diehard, that’s the next step and it’s challenging.
