Drive to Survive season six will drop on Netflix on February 23. Thank you for your time, you may now return to whatever it was you were doing.
Just kidding. Although there isn’t much else to tell you beyond the fact that the release date coincides with the final day of preseason testing, so you won’t have long to binge all of the episodes before the real action resumes in Bahrain the following week.
It’ll be interesting to see what angle the series takes given that the 2023 Formula 1 season on which it’s based was...rather low on drama. So don’t expect to see much of Max Verstappen. Like the rest of the grid, ironically.

So what might they pay attention to instead? There’s any number of storylines they could cover: Mercedes-AMG realizing it had built another dud, rookie seasons for Oscar Piastri and Logan Sargeant, the return, departure, and return of Daniel Ricciardo, Fernando Alonso doing Fernando Alonso things...plenty of material there.

Just be prepared for the fact that this might be the last we see of (former) Haas team principal Guenther Steiner: Netflix turned him into a global cult hero in its first season, but with the 58-year-old removed from his post earlier this month, the only way he returns to our screens next year is if he hosts it. Wait, he should host it!
As yet there’s no word on whether Drive to Survive will return for a seventh season in 2025, but considering its popularity has fueled two new races in Miami and Vegas, you can bet that F1 will be keen for the cameras to stay rolling for as long as possible.
Will you be watching season six, or is the format getting stale?
