- The tension between Ricciardo and Norris seems very manufactured. Based on all other interactions, seems like they get along fine, Netflix just blew up some of the comments from Norris and made it a story line.

I was confused about this as well.

Spoiler!

I think they purposely made Riccardo look like the bad guy here, make it look like he's a bad teammate. Showing how Carlos Sainz is so friendly when he goes to his new team and getting along with all teammates. Then Riccardo, they are implying that he is a bad teammate.

I am thinking it may have something to do with luring Max back into doing interviews next season. But its crazy how they can craft the narrative like that (proving Max correct). I honestly thought that Riccardo and Norris had an amazing relationship throughout the season.

this was the biggest shock to me.
