Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story

Looks like a drama movie ,in 2009 an intensive and mesmerizing chapter of one the most short and successful team in F1 Brawn Grand Prix !!

This is beautifully done, with all these characters, Bernie Eclestone, Luca di Montezemolo , Flávio Briatore , Jenson and John Button , Norbert Haug , Ross Brawn , Christian Horner, Sebastian Vettel , Rubens Barrichello, Filipe Massa , Max Mosley, Lewis and Anthony Hamilton and all the gang of 09s and 2010s , 4 Episodes of intense Formula 1 fight until the end isf season .

PS .

Keanu Reeves does an outstanding job , producing and hosting, well done Keanu.

I watch a tiny bit F1 from time to time after the Netflix series. Just to have something to follow. And the many rules and personalities make it engaging. It's also easier to get into than any other sport because you just need to know 20 athletes. That's it. It's fewer performers than players on a single soccer team. You can watch it and know everything about it right away. Tour de France in comparison has 170+ riders. Plus you have more action here too.

This is a great documentary for all people. Fans and outsiders alike. Keanu Reeves does such a spectacular job at interviewing people that this should be shown in journalist schools. Some of the best interviewing I have seen. He's hype and engaged and knows the details of the story making the participants respond in a way that makes structuring this documentary extremely easy for editors. The whole thing was clearly carefully planned out before the interviews took place and Keanu is extremely focused on making it the best thing it can be with clear and direct questions about what the people felt and what happened. Removing most F1 drama and rumors and sticking to the emotional rollercoaster it is. Plus we get a ton of F1 vs. The teams drama too with both sides being interviewed. Overall everyone comes out from this looking good. It's counter to Netflix Drive to Survive that made Max look like a cold monster to create a storyline. So much so that even people who disliked him called them out for it and he refused to take part in more seasons even though the show became a gigantic hit and made F1 into what it is today.

So the interviewing is some of the best I have ever seen. They have recordings of all the races. They interview most of the important people. They structure the story so that everything is clear yet the mystery remains and you don't know what will happen next. I frankly don't see anyone improving on this. And I have seen a ton of F1 and sports documentaries. Race documentaries are usually dull and slow. This turns it around and makes it personal. The excitement is created by the guy who interviews people and structures the story. Something I have been begging for in other such documentaries about single seasons. A host tying it all together. Yet for some reason most other documentaries avoid this and instead focus on some lousy interviews with no preparation from when the event took place. Awful.

Only thing lacking is details. It's extremely shallow with basically no tech details anywhere and you feel like you don't quite understand anything about this.

I frankly want Keanu to go over modern seasons too. I want to see all Max wins too. Please.

As a huge fan who followed JB since he joined F1 and watched the 2009 season including being at the British Grand Prix this was the season in F1 that I have loved the most, The brought that all back. A fantastic documentary with interviews with everyone and what an most excellent host in Mr Reeves, this brought all that memory and drama back.

Even if you know very little about F1 this really is a true underdog story, brilliant.

Even the story about the FOTO breakaway was explored well and the sly behaviour of Bernie and the smartness of the Brawn legal lady was great to see see unfold,

totally recommend.

Overall this is great and is well worth the watch but I felt that Keanu was rather wooden, which I was not expect from someone I had thought of as an F1 fan. You would have thought that a Hollywood A list actor could act with some more enthusiasm. It just felt like he was given the script 30 seconds before filming had started.

Quite a few events that I'd forgotten happened at the time, looking back, I think this was the last time that F1 was truly exciting. Now it they could only look back and replicated this into the modern era that would be fantastic.

So, overall it is worth watching just do not be put off by the wooden performance of Keanu.

I watched this documentary but I had watched the season.

I thought this doco was was put together and had an amazing amount of people involved appearing.

Keanu was great as the presenter and was enthusiastic as I know he like's F1.

The doco certainly has a feel good factor to it.

For a team with almost no budget to build two cars and be competitive is a fairy tale. To win 6 out of the first 7 was just unheard of. The trials and tribulations that happened afterwards shows the resilience of the drivers and the team. To win a world championship in the last race of the season by having to reach 5th from back in the melee, is astonshing.

To much water under the bridge now but if when Williams came onto the scene now, they could have done another. Williams upset everyone after the glory years of Lotus and Mario Andretti. Frank Williams built a team up out of nothing and hired Patrick Head to design the car. All of the success of Williams was down to Head and then Adrian Newry. Newry left and went to Red Bull and that's when they took off. Unfortunately after Sir Frank Passed and Newry left, Williams was never competitive again,

With the exception of Ferrari, all F1 teams are based in the England. We are the soul of F1.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and decide to refrain on too my thought on Mr Eccleston.
