The series is being produced by Box to Box Films, a reputable maker of sports documentaries, including Senna, and founder Paul Martin has assured F1 fans that the level of access the filmmakers have been given is unprecedented.
"Netflix was the perfect platform on which to tell the inside story of this incredible sport," he said.
"F1 has long been a world of colourful characters and super-sized egos, thrills and drama, victory and tragedy, but until now that world has been largely hidden and secretive.
"'Formula 1: Drive to Survive' takes the viewers right into the heart of this world and shows what it is like to live, work and race within the world’s fastest sport."
