Chasing The Dream
First launched in January 2020, Formula 2’s first-ever docuseries Chasing The Dream brings fans right into the heart of the exhilarating and action-packed life on the penultimate rung of the single-seater racing ladder.
With unprecedented behind-the-scenes access, the series’ fly-on-the-wall’ format follows the Championship’s brightest talents and their stories, showcasing the characters that bring the paddock to life.
Charting the trials and triumphs of being a racing driver at one of the highest levels of motorsport, the series lifts the veil on the stars of tomorrow, showing them in their quest for title glory and to achieve their ultimate dream – a seat in Formula 1.
Previous seasons have chronicled Nyck de Vries’ path to becoming Champion in 2019 and the paddock’s solidarity after the tragic loss of Anthoine Hubert, Mick Schumacher and Callum Ilott’s fierce tight fight that went to the wire in 2020. Season 3 delved into Oscar Piastri’s extraordinary journey, going from rookie to Champion in triumphant style followed up by Felipe Drugovich making history for MP Motorsport and then Théo Pourchaire finally earning the F2 crown in 2023.
Season 6 followed one of the closest fought seasons in F2 history, as the title battle between Gabriel Bortoleto and Isack Hadjar went to the last day of the campaign.
Episodes will be released every Wednesday following a race weekend and you can catch all of the latest instalments via the F1 YouTube channel and F1TV.
EPISODE 1
The first episode of the year follows all the action in Melbourne, Australia, as Formula 2 breaks new ground by beginning the Championship in the southern hemisphere for the first time ever.
There’s a back-to-school feeling as the paddock reconvenes for the first time this year in full capacity following pre-season testing earlier last month.
Competitive action kicks the year off on Friday, with the first Qualifying session of the season full of drama and unpredictability right to the end, and into the evening, as provisional pole sitter Gabriele Minì loses top spot to Victor Martins.
The Sprint Race is the first opportunity of the season to put points on the board, and AIX Racing’s Joshua Duerksen obliges with one of his finest drives in the Championship to date.
Unfortunately, weather plays its part, and the Feature Race is a washout, though that doesn’t dampen everyone’s spirits on Sunday.
