Netflix will air a Michael Schumacher documentary which will show the “many facets of his multi-layered personality”. The documentary will be out on the 15th of September. Unlike other sports documentaries, it is set to be filmed in movie format like ‘The Last Dance.’ The documentary will show viewers Michael’s journey from riding karts in Germany to becoming one of the most iconic Formula One drivers to ever live. Titled ‘Schumacher’, it is set to have exclusive interviews with his wife Corinna, his two children Mick and Gina, and former and current F1 drivers such as Sebastien Vettel and Mika Hakkinen.

Michael retired from racing in 2012 whilst driving for Mercedes. In 2014 he unfortunately hit his head in ski trip with his son. The former driver is still recovering from the hit, albeit in a very private way due of family wishes. The driver’s son Mick picked up the mantle and is now a Formula One driver himself, so it would be interesting if the viewers can see what Michael taught his son about F1.
F1 have already benefitted massively from Netflix’s docuseries ‘Drive To Survive’, where cameras have been let free into the world of Formula One drivers, bosses and staff. Another F1 documentary about a famous figure like Michael Schumacher will help the sport and brand garner more interest.
