The most spectacular series about Formula I has returned and, as always, it does so on Netflix. The Netflix series “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” has once again pulled back the curtain on the high-octane world of motorsport, offering a raw and unfiltered look at the 2024 Formula I season. Spectacle inside and outside the track: a series that gets into the paddock and follows the season from within, with exclusive interviews with drivers, team principals, and other employees, along with exclusive race footage.

By far, the best series you can watch about Formula I.

For any fan of this sport, the must-see event of each season.

An Unprecedented Year of Drama

The seventh season arrives at a crucial moment in Formula I history, packed with storylines that could fill several seasons. Premiered just one week before the 2025 campaign begins at the Australian Grand Prix, the 10-episode series covers the dramatic 2024 season in its entirety.

The Hamilton-Ferrari Revolution

Lewis Hamilton’s signing with Ferrari created an early “silly season”, with eight teams remodeling their driver lineups. Although the series addresses Hamilton’s decision from the beginning, it’s interesting that it focuses more on the succession plan at Mercedes and the uncertainties surrounding George Russell’s leadership potential.

Dramatic Departures

The season doesn’t shy away from emotional exits. A particularly moving narrative follows Daniel Ricciardo, who was replaced at Racing Bulls just six races before the end of the 2024 season.

Tensions Behind the Scenes

The series continues its tradition of revealing internal team dynamics, including an awkward exchange between Toto Wolff and Lewis Hamilton during a car launch, and Wolff’s discussions about possible replacements that even included Max Verstappen.

And More, Much More

As you well know, the 2024 season had many moments of tension. “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” addresses absolutely all of them, leaving none out.

A series, without doubt, not to be missed.
