Where Did F1 Drivers Grow Up?
Ever wondered where the stars of Netflix’s Drive to Survive actually grew up? Today, we’re going on the ultimate British F1 road trip!
In this video, we travel across the UK to visit the hometowns and first childhood homes of the current British Formula 1 grid. From the humble beginnings of 7-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton in Stevenage to the quiet countryside roots of George Russell and Lando Norris, we explore the neighborhoods that shaped these racing legends before they made it to the podium.
But the journey doesn’t end in the UK! We’re also discussing the "Monaco Migration." Why do almost all British drivers—including Alex Albon and rookie sensation Ollie Bearman—eventually move to Monte Carlo? We look at their current luxury residences, the tax-free lifestyle, and how their lives have changed since their early days in karting.
What’s inside:
✅ Lewis Hamilton: Visiting his first home in Stevenage and his journey from "the slums" to a global icon.
✅ Lando Norris: From the hills of Bristol/Somerset to his high-tech apartment in Monaco.
✅ George Russell: Exploring his Norfolk roots and his rise through the Mercedes junior ranks.
✅ Ollie Bearman: The newest generation of British talent and their shared neighborhoods.
Arvid Lindbald: The only british rookie in 2026.
✅ DTS vs. Reality: How Drive to Survive portrays their lives vs. the real towns they call home.
If you’re an F1 fan who loves the lifestyle and history behind the drivers, this is for you!
