I suspect the same people who will be mad it’s not a documentary, especially the British press, also hate Rush because it was too fake, Miracle on ice because it was too fake, top gun because it was too fake…I digress.

The euro/british gatekeeping and snobbery is easily the worst part of F1 (and all sports, really). They hated it the minute it was announced it was an American movie about F1. I doubt most of them even watched it.

It’s actually funny how mad F1 reddit is that it’s getting good reviews or exists at all. People are beside themselves that their precious sport is being made Hollywood and that the movie isn’t 100% realistic.
Yeah, anyone who was expecting it to not be a Hollywood movie is going to be disappointed.
