The announcement we’ve all been yearning for since the exhilarating end to the 2021 F1 season is finally here! Netflix has officially revealed the release date of Formula 1: Drive to Survive Season 4. The upcoming edition of the world-famous F1 documentary series will air on Netflix in the second week of March.
When to expect season 4 of DTS?
Netflix affirmed that the fourth season of DTS will take the streaming platform by storm on March 11, 2022. And much like the previous seasons, the forthcoming edition will cover the events surrounding the latest Formula One campaign, i.e. the 2021 season.

The timing of the release, though, seems a bit odd, as most of the racing fraternity will be busy watching the second testing in Bahrain which is scheduled from March 10 to March 12. Only this time, the hype around winter testing is likely to be bigger than ever, considering the first testing in Barcelona will happen behind closed doors. Hence, the desperation in the fans is certainly going to be at its peak.
Well, if you’re one of those F1 fans stuck in a dilemma about whether to watch Drive to Survive or the Sakhir winter testing, we’d suggest you wait for a day post-release; There is a one-week window you could use up before F1 flags off the 2022 season. Following the end of the final testing on March 12, the next action takes place exactly a week later at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton vs Max Verstappen – the potential highlight of F1 DTS Season 4?
Very likely! Verstappen and Hamilton produced what is arguably one of the greatest rivalries of all time. And the Netflix crew was just at the right place at the right time to capture these high-pressure moments. There are going to be numerous unseen footages related to the pair’s electrifying on-track duel.
And, of course, not to forget the secondary battle between the two team bosses, Toto Wolff and Christian Horner. Hence, an enthralling season 4 of Drive to Survive is potentially ahead for the fans to witness! Don’t miss it!
In the meantime, here are some of the best reactions from the F1 community following Netflix’s announcement.
Roll on March 11 🍿… season 4!!
