This is literally accurate tho.

[@birdland85]

Hahhaah right?

[@dodgyoldmate1644]

Love this comment because its sooo true

[@opt6037]

Best analogy / comment to describe this situation I’ve seen 😂

[@denis700d]

Just to clarify, F1 isn't a web show. It's the top category of motorsport. The cars are the fastest designed to go around a circuit. The races take place in 4 continents. The Netflix show is just a thing from the last 3 years. Formula 1 is a yearly championship and it dates back to the 1950.

[@DanieleCappuccio97]

They are Americans. They use the imperial system. What do you expect from them?

[@realmilind]

Danny had to think and tell the speed in miles per hour 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@_inked_out]

To be fair is because of that Netflix show that Americans are paying more attention to F1 including myself.

[@GamezGuru1]

Daniel could have done a way better job of explaining it to be honest... describing it as a circus of adrenaline is kind of rediculous.

[@adityasen610]

Yes it is the pinnacle of motorsports and technology in terms of car engineering to push the mechanical boundaries of conventional cars. The whole Netflix show is just to bring F1 to more larger audience. It's amazing to watch and at the end of each race you don't realize where the 2 hrs went.

[@chris0460]

Ellen spoke to him like he was just a character in a Netflix show, and not one of the most talented drivers on the planet.

[@lucasbello117]

well... tbh 'murica doesn't know F1... at least a real big % of it I mean... luckily DTS got more people into F1 but still... most of the US can't relate at all to them and don't understand how good drivers are

i was thinking the same thing, i feel lime f1 drivers don’t do many great interviews or talk shows, and as a fan i think it’s so “mystical” you know? would love to watch some extended interviews

[@jeanvaughn7372]

Where is the Lewis episode?

[@Leaferr]

I meaann, I get that but there's only a certain amount of questions you can really ask in the context that its very likely majority of the crowd doesnt know anything about F1.

[@Leaferr]

like you couldnt really ask anything specific about the season or too in depth because it would be hard to understand without alot of context.

[@amalfrancis9590]

it's like she googled 'top 5 questions to ask an f1 driver'.

[@denisecraftylady238]

[@aptravelogs1934]

He was actually trying to make it sound funny but tough crowd :(

[@kryptic9056]

The reason you invite Daniel Ricciardo to a talkshow is because he is bloody Daniel Ricciardo. If you're only going to recycle silly questions and ask about DTS, you should just invite Netflix. This interview had such huge potential. You'd think TheEllenShow would want their farewell season to be spectacular.

[@ndirjura]

The real reason here was to promote Drive to Survive. It's quite clear

[@rigf1997]

exactly my words

Something that wasn’t mentioned here, Daniel ricciardo is in fact half human and half honey badger. He is often times referred to as just “the honey badger” in f1 since he is currently the only driver on the grid who is part honey badger. Honey badger

[@revantha247]

underrated comment

[@kingbradley3402]

F1 is not just about the drivers. It's the pinnacle of car engineering. You're extracting every drop of speed you can within the rules. Sure it's fun to see overtakes and stuff, but some of the R&D (DAS etc), the strategies involved in gaining points is amazing. DTS captures more of the drama and the emotion, but the engineering is unparalleled. Imagine a whole tire change in under 3 seconds

[@anneleonghaseyo]

And after sitting out for six months as Championship leader Red Bull's third and test driver, he did a Pirelli tyre test at Silverstone after the British GP, he's back in an F1 car as part of their sister team, Scuderia AlphaTauri.

I am happy that F1 starts to gain traction in America. However, it's all thanks to Netflix's DTS, which overly dramatically portrays how the sport works.

[@holypumba7864]

yeah I also think the show spreads a lot of misinformation but I mean if you just got into f1 its fun to watch I think

[@mann7298]

as a non american who got into f1 through the show, if ppl really get interested they will also know this dramatic touch eventually, and if they use their head they know that its normal to exaggerate some things to add drama so they will take things with a grain of salt. things will clear up when you start to follow the sport on your own not through the netflix show. ofc there are some ppl who will maybe just watch dts but then again, there are plenty of people who know little things about them anyway and make their own assumptions, you can never win 100%.

Just as an American I feel I need to say, I got into F1 a couple years ago, and it had absolutely nothing to do with Drive to Survive. There exists some Americans like me who know that F1 has a much longer and more eventful history than the Netflix series. And yes, we use miles instead of kilometers, and we use pounds instead of kilograms for some reason, but at the end of the day that love for racing is still there.
