A former British racing driver has urged Formula 1 fans whose passion for the sport was affected by the controversial end to the 2021 season to give it a second chance.
F1 has enjoyed a huge boost in popularity in recent years with new fans from across the world tuning in to watch the action on a Grand Prix weekend. The increased interest is credited, at least in part, to the success of the Netflix Drive to Survive docu-drama.
Increased competition at the front of the grid and the enthralling title race between Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton and arch Red Bull rival Max Verstappen will also have helped last season. Formula 1 races were not to be missed, especially in the final weeks of the campaign.
