I have to agree, Merc and Ferrari not taking part ment less focus on them - where it would have ended up otherwise.
I found it interesting to see how badly that relation between Renault and Red Bull had deteriorated. The passion in the Haas team - I have actually decided to give Grosjean another chance, it shows how the races are won and lost behind the scenes more so than on track. I found that my dislike for Magnussen was not misplaced. My dislike for Ocon tho was. I was actually heart broken for him.
My heart broke all over again for the Force India team, I have maybe too high hopes for Leclerc. Redbull made it very obvious that Max is their golden boy - kinda felt even more so than when Vettel was there. I hope for their sake he matured over the break. Gasly has a hell of a lot to prove and shoulder as his teammate.
Im secretly hoping Renault kicks Redbull ass
That Mclaren pull up their socks. I was sad that Williams didnt take a bigger part but then again it might have to do with the Williams docu that was released. I feel for Claire Williams
And I do like Dani Ric even more now than before if that is even possible.

I havenāt watched the documentary yet, but even as a Ferrari fan, I would think itās a good thing that the documentary focuses on the other teams more.
Also, Ha, I just took the personality test on Formula1.com and my result was Alain Prost. As a late bloomer to F1(I started in the Schumacher dominant era) Iām not entirely sure how he was in his days but sounds like a good guy based on the description they gave.

I really enjoyed that documentary. Iām not a particular fan of any 1 team or driver and it made me care a whole lot more about the other teams.
Some of those drivers are absolute whingers though

Prost was a machine; probably one of the smartest racers ever. There is no doubt he was very quick, but he didnāt have the natural speed of a Senna or Mansell. He did however have an amazing ability to think a race through, and manage engine / tyres / fuel better than anyone else, which meant he often picked up wins seemingly out of nowhere. A prime example is his 1986 championship win, which he grabbed from under the nose of Mansell in a Williams that was way faster for the whole season.

That was why he was called The Professor.
I loved his racing and personality off track.

Youāre the F1 free spirit. You hark back to the days when the drivers were all good mates in the paddock, when power slides were the fastest way of getting round a circuit and when post-race partying wasnāt frowned upon. Youāve got strong, passionate views which youāre not afraid to express, and you donāt suffer fools gladly.

Prost drove like a robot, but had the personality of a spoilt 5 year old until he retired and turned into a nice old Frenchman

Not for you the life of the F1 party animal. Youāre in bed at a reasonable hour, prefer 18 holes to lifting dumbbells, and when it comes to spending your cash, you keep it sensible. But while you may eschew the party lifestyle, that doesnāt mean that youāre not a hard-charger on the track. You like to grab a racing car by the scruff of the neck ā although you have a tendency to make excuses when it all goes wrong.
