It’s just one week before the 2022 world championship’s inaugural event, the Bahrain Grand Prix, races at Sakhir.

Drive to Survive season 4 will be ten episodes long. You can see the official poster for the upcoming season below. It came out when Netflix confirmed the release date.
The 2021 F1 Championship is sure to have provided the Drive to Survive crew with more than enough exciting moments for the new series. Camera crews were embedded with teams across the F1 calendar once again last year. They did it to capture reactions to some of the best (and worst) points of the season.
We expect the tense title race between Mercedes’ driver Lewis Hamilton and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen —which dominated the 2021 season right down to the very end—will play a huge part in the season’s arc.
However, Verstappen has previously gone on record to say he won’t be participating in the show as he feels past seasons of the show have “faked rivalries” to make the sport appear more dramatic.
