    Fun fact: Although electric car are "the future" it is not the solution alone. What we also need is to change the energy base matrix, otherwise we are just transferring the problem from the cars to the power plants needed to supply them. We still need reliable renewable energy sources to replace the current thermoelectric. Not only that, we also need to prepare the eletric network to recieve that amount of demand. :)

    Ellen 6:00 - 6:10 is really spot on. The main driver I support is Kimi Raikkonen but there are several other drivers that I follow in the race like Norris, LeClerc, Russell and Verstappen. And watching the pre and post race reviews and interviews, you do get to know about all of the teams and all of the drivers. Netflix's Drive to Survive series does a good job showing each team's stories and dramas. Haas in particular is interesting.

    Here is how to improve F1, have Mike, Luke and Ellen as alternative commentary for races. Mike is your David Coultard serious anaylyst telling people on how to get round the corners and how they should be driving. Luke knows the names of the drivers so he can interview them about the race and Ellen comments on how the cars look and gives them names. Frankly thats a winning idea

    I love how many people I've heard about getting into F1 because of the Netflix series.
    I've been a casual fan all my life because I used to watch it with my dad. I actually have one of the old Ferrari F1 Lego sets and it's one of my most prized possessions. Also the only set from my childhood that didn't get disassembled and made into other things.

      5:50 side note- has anyone else noted the irony of the Tesla not being in Formula-e like at all? I mean this is the company that wants to change the world over to electric, and says it want's to get into racing, but hasn't gotten into the motorsport that was basically tailor made for them.
      personally, I'm not sorry to see they are not in the race, but it's just weird.
      also, who else wants to see the Mach-e as the next e-Trophy car? don't get me wrong the I-pace is nice, but it would also be nice to see it go "door to door" with the Mustang.
