	Description:		It's a day at the races for 1A! The popularity of F1 in the US skyrocketed after Liberty Media bought Formula 1 in 2017. Netflix's Drive to Survive helped boost interest in the sport (for both new and old fans) during the height of the pandemic. Netflix's series has remained popular ever since and is now in its sixth season. But among all the glitz and glamor, F1 is not without controversies, which could make it a hard sell for American audiences. We discuss where F1 fits in America's racing scene, and what it'll take for the US to full embrace the sport. Want to support 1A?
