- 1 Like many people with taste, I recently found myself watching every single episode of Netflix’s series on Formula 1 racing, Drive to Survive. In the last six months, I watched every single episode of every single season and went from saying, “Why would I care about race cars or whatever?” to recording the 2023 races on YouTube TV. And while I may not be an expert on Formula 1 racing by any means — though I did finally figure out what “DRS” means — I do feel qualified to judge men. And that, folks, is why we are here today. We are here to rank the current male drivers of Formula 1 based on what I imagine it would be like to date them.
- 2 Author’s note: I am aware that many of these men are taken, and that some are even married. But in this fictional world, I have created within this article, they are all single and straight, and this is just for fun. Besides, they are all millionaires and will be just fine. Thank you.
