Apple and Netflix Collaborate to Stream ‘Drive to Survive’ Season 8
Apple TV is teaming up with Netflix to stream the new season of Formula 1: Drive to Survive, which will debut on both platforms at midnight PT/3 a.m. ET on Feb. 27. The series will be available for Apple TV subscribers in the US only, the tech giant announced Thursday. The move comes as part of Apple’s expansive — and exclusive — F1 programming after the company inked a five-year deal with Formula 1 to broadcast races starting this year.
Drive to Survive has been a top performer in the docuseries category on Netflix, with viewership exceeding 10 million in the first half of 2025. Sticking with its insider, behind-the-scenes style, season 8 will follow the motorsport’s leading contenders in the lead-up to the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Follow your favorite drivers’ stories while they’re on the track — and off — to see how they weather the competition.
Apple TV subscribers can begin streaming F1’s 2026 season when it kicks off on March 6 with the Australian Grand Prix. As an added perk of the collab, Netflix will also broadcast F1’s Canadian Grand Prix from May 22 to May 24 for its US subscribers.
