Viaplay set out to capture the anticipation of a new Formula 1 season – and show why they’re the go-to destination for fans. The challenge was to connect three worlds: the athlete, the expert, and the viewer. With Max Verstappen at the heart of the story, we needed to build tension and excitement while keeping it grounded and real.
We built the story like a race: quiet at first, focused, then full speed. From Max in his simulator, to the analysts prepping in the studio, to a living room of fans ready for lights out – every moment leads up to the start of the season.
The tone is authentic and energetic, blending documentary and commercial. No overlit sets, just real people in real spaces, united by a shared passion. You don’t just watch the new season begin – you feel it.
