“You spend three hours every week driving your automotive and 300 hours being interviewed by each rattling herbert with an iPhone… in Components One, everyone seems to be interviewed on a regular basis. On the best way to the monitor. On the monitor. Earlier than the race. After the race. It’s fixed.”
He added: “When you end within the prime three, it’s worse as a result of then you might be interviewed after the race earlier than being put in a room with the opposite podium-finishers so we will hear what you might be saying to 1 one other. After which there are extra interviews.”
Clarkson wrote that this doesn’t occur in every other sport, and cited the Australian Grand Prix final weekend when neither Fernando Alonso nor Max Verstappen would specific themselves absolutely, figuring out each phrase was being captured by the Netflix crew for the hit collection Drive to Survive.
Clarkson stated this new discretion had had an impact on the collection itself, writing:
“Within the early days, we have been repeatedly handled to hissed altercations, as individuals didn’t realise they have been being recorded. Now, each time anybody sees a Netflix microphone, they go into PR mode.”
