Pretty good... Odd to start with a few minutes of supposed off-season comments and clips. It's a lame attempt to show F1 drivers' lives away from F1. Next time, don't bother.
Narrative focus is okay, if obviously contrived to push melodrama. There's little exposition on F1 at large, while focusing on one team, which disproportionately elevates them. But, hey, that's this series, and as long as expectations are aligned, it's okay.
The addition of Danica Patrick was a bad move to try to connect with US viewership. She's bad at the job, and she's useless here. There's a very large US market that eagerly awaits her departure.
I think DTS has it's episode formula firmly in place, and regular viewers will see what the expect, with no real surprises. The series is much more designed for new viewers, and for people who don't watch F1 regularly through the season. It's certainly not designed for rabid consumers of F1 media (which is surely the worst kind of rumor mongering out there).
