netflix prépare avec l’actrice reese witherspoon un drive to survive au féminin

Les championnes Bianca Bustamante, Abbi Pulling et Doriane Pin sur le podium du Grand Prix de F1 Academy à Miami, ce week-end.

Ce samedi 4 mai sur X, le championnat féminin F1 Academy a annoncé l’arrivée de sa propre version de Formula 1 : Drive to survive , programme à succès de Netflix qui suit le championnat masculin depuis 2019. La F1 Academy vient de succéder aux W series, qui ont pris fin il y a deux ans faute de financements. Elle va donc faire l’objet d’une série documentaire dès sa première année d’existence.

C’est l’actrice Reese Witherspoon, avec sa société de production audiovisuelle Hello Sunshine, qui soutient ce projet. La productrice de la future série documentaire avait déjà aidé la F1 Academy : à l’origine, les fans ne pouvaient trouver que les classements sur Internet. La comédienne de Big Little Lies avait œuvré pour que les courses puissent être diffusées à la télévision.

«C’est énorme. On nous a dit “Essayez d’avoir un peu de temps d’écran dans Drive to survive” On leur répond… Qu’on aura notre propre série», déclare fièrement Susie Wolff, la directrice générale de la F1 Academy et ancienne pilote, dans une publication sur X. «Merci à Netflix et Hello Sunshine», ajoute celle dont le mari, Torger Wolff, est à la tête de l’écurie Mercedes en Formule 1.

«Nous avons fondé Hello Sunshine pour changer les choses pour les femmes», indique Reese Witherspoon dans son communiqué. «C’est ce que Susie Wolff et la F1 Academy sont en train de faire, en créant de nouvelles opportunités dans le monde sensationnel du sport automobile.»

Les équipes de Netflix suivront donc les quinze pilotes de la F1 Academy, parmi lesquelles deux Françaises : Doriane Pin, déjà victorieuse sur le circuit saoudien de Jeddah, et Lola Lovinfosse.

«Nous savons que si les femmes sont au centre des choses, les gens viendront regarder», assure Witherspoon dans ce même communiqué. C’est l’objectif de sa société Hello Sunshine : mettre les femmes en avant. Lorsqu’on lui avait demandé pourquoi ce choix, sur le plateau du talk-show «The View» avec Whoopi Goldberg, l’actrice avait répondu très simplement : «Parce que les histoires des femmes comptent.»
