I feel like that if you want to get into F1, best way is to dedicate 1-2 weekends to watch it through F1TV (best insights, best commentary, a lot of information), and watch all the practices, quali, and Grand Prix. Then you can maybe see a little more into the tactics, why some tyres work for certain situations, how important the pitstops/undercuts/safety cars are etc... I mean, its way easier to talk about it then to actually get into F1, at least for me, because Ive been a fan since I was maybe 9-10, so for 22, 23 years now.
But still, to me, this is the pinacle of motorsport. Drive to Survive maybe made it into a reality TV sometimes, but at least a lot more fans are now watching, which is, in many ways good for the sport (just like when THPS games came out). If you get a bug once, I feel like there is no coming back, especially now, when the Hamilton era is over and races are more close since the new cars debuted this year. Yeah, Max won 15 races this year. But next season, all the teams will have a lot more understanding of the new cars, ground effect, and I feel like next year will be bonkers, so a good time to start.
