The movie “Good for non-F1 fans”, according to Ben Hunt, while Mark Mann-Bryans felt it was “Not good for anyone watching”. The racing scenes were visually impressive, utilizing advanced technology and techniques similar to Top Gun. Some critics felt there was an excess of racing, but overall the scenes were well-shot. The storyline surrounding the racing was praised for its technical aspects, but criticized for its unrealistic portrayal of the sport. The overall storyline, beyond the track, was deemed weak and predictable by some reviewers, who suggested it would have worked better as a TV series. The portrayal of women in the film was a point of criticism, with some feeling it undermined efforts for diversity in the sport.
