The most recent season of was launched on Friday as the favored docu-series tells the story of the 2024 season.

’s transfer to featured prominently, as did the and Max Verstappen’s title win. However what main tales from final yr did miss in season 7?

George Russell and Max Verstappen’s beef

Extra so than McLaren’s constructors’ triumph, this was the story on the final race of the season in Abu Dhabi.

Mercedes driver Russell and Purple Bull’s four-time world champion have been embroiled in a heated row, stemming from a confrontation within the stewards room on the penultimate race in Qatar.

The spotlight, from on the bottom, was Russell’s wherein Toto Wolff stood subsequent to him in solidarity as he launched an anti-Verstappen tirade.

The Drive to Survive cameras have been even current, with the growth mic hovering over Russell unmissable. But bizarrely, there was no room for this squabble in season seven.

Maybe one to give attention to for subsequent yr?

Adrian Newey becoming a member of Aston Martin

The Miami Grand Prix ended with Lando Norris’s first F1 victory – and that featured prominently – however the Floridian weekend began with the shock information of Newey’s departure from Purple Bull.

The F1 design guru was the person praised for Verstappen’s dominant 2023 automobile and had been a key determine over 18 years beneath Christian Horner.

Would he group up with Hamilton at Ferrari? What a few return to Williams or McLaren? Ultimately, Newey opted for a to Aston Martin.

Once more, maybe one to delve into extra element for the following season, forward of Newey’s first Aston automobile in 2026.

Ollie Bearman’s F1 debut in Saudi Arabia

His debut, filling in for Carlos Sainz for Ferrari in Jeddah and ending seventh forward of Hamilton and Norris, receives no point out in any respect.

Russell’s disqualification in Spa

This was completely weird.

The episode targeted predominantly on Mercedes – episode three, titled Wanting Out For #1 – takes a have a look at Toto Wolff’s choice to interchange Lewis Hamilton with Kimi Antonelli.

Intriguingly, a great chunk of the episode focuses on Russell, as he “stakes his declare” to be the group’s No 1 driver shifting ahead. The principle occasion for that is his terrific win in Belgium, wherein he holds off a problem from his teammate Hamilton.

But astonishingly, DtoS fails to say that Russell was later disqualified for his automobile being underweight, handing Hamilton the grand prix victory.
