NASCAR fans have eagerly anticipated the second season of Netflix's NASCAR documentary, which follows the 2024 Cup Series playoffs in its own version of Formula 1's Netflix documentary series -- Drive to Survive. Despite the meteoritic rise in F1's popularity stateside over recent years, NASCAR remains the most-watched form of auto racing in the United States of America, which Netflix was hoping to tap into with the production of this series.
Season 1 of the show premiered in January of last year, just before the start of the new season. It covered the 2023 playoffs and Ryan Blaney's championship run, averaging a solid 3.4 million viewers on the streaming service.
