Red Bull Racing and Mercedes made it a great year last season. The German team were the big favourites to win the world title, but Max Verstappen walked away with the top prize. Soon Netflix will release a new season of 'Drive to Survive', which Horner is logically looking forward to.

Red Bull's team boss worked hard behind the scenes for years to offer Verstappen a car with which he could compete with Mercedes. Although the 2021 car was still inferior to Lewis Hamilton's, the Dutchman managed to provide enough opposition to fight until the end.

Horner keen to see 2021 title fight again

Where the entire season was already full of tension, both men provided the final chord in Abu Dhabi. Hamilton seemed to be heading for the world title with relative ease, until Nicholas Latifi drove his car into the wall, a yellow flag followed and Verstappen got past him.

It therefore promises to be an exciting season on Netflix, as Horner also knows. "The latest season is just coming out and I just had a preview of the first four episodes," he revealed in The talkSPORT Breakfast radio show. "This season is insane because of the rivalry between Lewis and Max."
