Ready to race? It’s almost time to put the pedal to the metal with Season 6 of Formula 1: Drive to Survive. The latest installation of the series features 10 new episodes that take F1 fanatics onto every circuit, into the paddocks, and behind the scenes of the pinnacle of motorsport.
Season 6 follows the action of last year’s 23 high-speed races, alongside the moves and machinations that take place before rubber even touches the road. At the start of the 2023 season, Red Bull is keen on securing a third consecutive championship for Belgian and Dutch driver Max Verstappen, while the rest of the grid fights to improve on the previous year’s stats. As 10 teams and 20 drivers vie for the 2023 FIA Formula 1 World Championship, the series presents never-before-seen footage of the action both on and off the track — from mid-season team roster changes and simmering rivalries to internal struggles and race day revelations. New talent and familiar faces get a chance to prove themselves behind the wheel, disappointing results force teams to quickly regroup, and team principals fight to keep their teams afloat.
