Kubernetes Minikube driver and running it inside a VM manager?
1 - There is no "better" or "worse". Using Docker is the default and with that the most supported version.2 - Yes, it is possible to run Minikube inside a VM.
Found more answers to my question after some digging in the documentation.

As there are options available but when using minikub inside a VM then preferred driver will be either none or ssh. I ran into some networking issues when initially used docker but resolved it after digging more into the documentation. Otherwise docker is fine unless someone who is expert in resolving networking issues between the host and guest(vm)
