Netflix reveals 'Drive to Survive' season 2 trailer

Netflix has released the trailer for the second season of its 'Drive to Survive' docuseries that will premiere on its streaming service on February 28th.

Last year's ten-part series which chronicled the 2018 F1 season with an exclusive fly-on-the wall approach detailing the inner workings of Grand Prix racing was a tremendous success with the fans.

This year's highly anticipated 10-part series will once again showcase what goes on behind the scenes on and off the track with drivers, team principals and owners.

But contrary to season 1, both Mercedes and Ferrari - and all the sports' teams - gave insider access to Netflix's production crews during last years' campaign.

And in case you're wondering, yes, the talented and not so well-spoken Mr. Steiner, the star of season 1, features once again prominently in the docuseries which includes an installment entitled "Boiling Point" in which the Haas boss supplies his delightful dose of swearing and four letter words as the team disintegrates at Silverstone.

Should you need to get pumped up ahead of the February 28 release of 'Drive to Survive', just check out the energized trailer.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
