Sophia Flörsch commented on the film and praised the film team for their work. She said: "When I watched, I had one or two tears in mind. When I reach other people, a great film was created." Christian Beetz, CEO and producer of the film, explained that he was initially skeptical when RTLZWEN suggested him to make a documentary about a racing driver. However, after getting to know Flörsch and the RTLZwei team, he was thrilled and decided to go "all in". The director Sonia Otto emphasized how fascinating it was to experience the passion for motorsport, but also how high the price is, the drivers have to pay for their success.
