Byrd Pinkerton Vox 11/01/2021
Drive To Survive is about Formula 1, but it's actually about interpersonal drama. There's a reason it's just been renewed for a fourth season. Go to Full Review William Tucker But Why Tho? A Geek Community 01/23/2023
8/10
Formula 1: Drive to Survive Season 3 continues to be one of the best ongoing sports documentaries. While hardcore fans may be upset about what was left out, it is important to remember that this is for newcomers as well. Go to Full Review Graeme Tuckett The Post NZ 03/30/2021
The focus is on the relationships more than the cars, and Drive to Survive remains a likeable and watchable show because of that. Guilty pleasures don't come much better-made than this. Go to Full Review Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut 03/23/2021

5/5
It proved to be a surprisingly exciting and often emotional season, with all kinds of human and political dramas woven through the action, and Netflix's ubiquitous Drive to Survive crew was there to catch all the nuances. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Lasse L @RT62932725 12/01/2024 Staying the course. Some epsiodes are forgettable but others are great. See more Ahmad M @ahmadmelhem 01/27/2023 Goes into acts of curation. See more 04/06/2022 On the way down. Although episode 9 is the best of all seasons. Yet it lacks the real good stories, rather than the usual ones. See more 03/30/2022 Editing multiple conversation into one to create false drama. Making drivers look bad. If you watched F1 you know it never happened.. See more 03/25/2022 Great show that my wife enjoys watching with me. The criticism regarding contrived drama involving drivers is unfortunate; there is certainly enough excitement between race footage, behind the scenes team interaction and the fact these young drivers risk their lives every time they enter the car. I believe this eliminates the need to add fake drama for a perceived increase in viewer ratings. I for one, would like to hear Max Verstappen's post race comments. I find it disappointing that he has chosen not to participate in the programming; I hope Netflix finds a way to work this out. See more 02/18/2022 One of the best season of the serie, is very interesting and also you can feel lots of emotions while you are watching drive to survive S 3 See more Read all reviews
