WATCH: F-Bombs and firings in gripping F1 Drive To Survive Season 5 trailer

If the final trailer is anything to go by, Season 5 of the hit F1 docuseries Drive To Survive will once again have fans gripped in the countdown to the 2023 season.

Netflix released 1 minute and 56 seconds of edge-of-the-seat tension and drama on Thursday afternoon to get fans old and new at fever pitch ahead of the season premiere.

There are now just eight days until Season 5 drops, right in the middle of pre-season testing in Bahrain on Friday February 24.

What’s in the final trailer, and watch it now

That final trailer teases some of the terrific storylines and moments, including:

* Max Verstappen returning to the series after his much-publicised concerns about the way drivers are portrayed on the streaming platform.

* Christian Horner on how the best way to become unpopular, is to win.

* F-bombs galore, including of course Haas Team Principal Guenther Steiner, who has become a cult hero thanks to the hit show. And fittingly, from Daniel Ricciardo.

* Zak Brown and the McLaren brass discussing the need to consider making a change. We know how that turned out.

* The struggles endured by Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes during a season beset by porpoising misery.

* Charles Leclerc telling the cameras: “I am confident, I know how much work we’ve done”. Obviously an early-season quote…

* The agony and tension in the Alfa Romeo garage at Silverstone after that horrific British Grand Prix crash involving Zhou Guanyu.
