Netflix’s popular sports documentary, Formula 1: Drive to Survive, will be returning to the streaming site for a sixth season, providing recaps of the biggest stories of the F1 season.

It was previously confirmed a sixth season would be happening as part of a two-season renewal in May 2022, and with season 5 having already aired, it’s no wonder fans are desperate to know when they’ll get in on all the action once again.

Season 5 of the docuseries took fans behind the scenes of Formula 1, exploring the 2022 season where Max Verstappen achieved his second world title, Sebastian Vettel retired and Ferrari showed notable improvements amongst many other turning points in the sport.

With the Formula 1 2023 season now at an end, read on for all the information about Formula 1: Drive to Survive season 6.

What is the speculated release date for Formula 1: Drive to Survive season 6?

While a sixth season has been greenlit by Netflix, a specific release date has not yet been confirmed.

However, there has been speculation as to when it could be released. All previous seasons have been released around the same time of the year, which is often a week or two ahead of the first race of the year.

Using season 5 as an example, the series dropped on Netflix on Friday 24th February 2023, the Friday ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix.

If we use this example in 2024, the Bahrain race is planned for Sunday March 3rd 2024, which could see season 6 released the week before.

Once we have more details we’ll be sure to update this page.

Is there a Formula 1: Drive to Survive season 6 trailer?

Not yet. An official trailer for Drive to Survive season 6 is yet to be released, but Netflix did give fans a teaser during The Netflix Cup.

The clip showed Zak Brown and Lando Norris golfing as they spoke about their prospects for the season.
