Drive To Survive producer denies that Michael Masi thought in Abu Dhabi: “What does Netflix want?”

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix cost 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton an all-time record eighth F1 championship when race director Masi’s incorrect application of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Safety Car rule allowed him to be overtaken by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.
The jaw-dropping finale played out on Netflix series Drive To Survive, with Mercedes and Red Bull team princip꧋als Toto Wolff and Christian Horner’s now-infamous remarks towards Masi.
Lando Norris has previously hinted that Masi was distracted by Netflix’s desire for drama: “It was obviously made to be a fight, ♌it was for the TV of course.”
But James Gay-Rees, the producer of Drive To Survive,🔯 told : “I think [Masi] was just under a lot of pressure and got things slightly wrong.
“I don’t thi🌟nk he was thinking ‘Wh🙈at does Netflix want?’”
Gay-Rees also produced ‘Senna’ - the excellent film a🌱bout Ayrton Senna - and is now making Break Point for Netflix, a series about tennis with obvious comparisons to Drive To Survive.
“There’s an appetite among audiences to go beyond the broadcast version of sportꦜ,” said Gay-Rees.

“There’s a massive curiosity about elite atꦡhletes and a desire to understand sport in a📖 different way, to see the personal investment by going behind the curtain.
“I think you will see a divergence of broadcast strategies that will make the experience less siloed and more fluid. As thꦜe narrative develops, the documentary piece andꦑ the live piece will become more integrated.”
The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Drive To Survive🥀 serie🌌s 5 release date🀅 has been revealed, and Verstappen will feature for the first time.
He has previously criticised the s🎐eries for over-drama꧋tising the storylines and relationships within F1.

James was a sportsꦗ journalist at Sky Sports for a decade covering everything from American sports, to football, to F1.
