Thirty years to the day that Michael Schumacher made his Formula 1 debut at the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix, Netflix have revealed the official trailer for SCHUMACHER, a documentary set to provide an intimate portrait of the seven-time champion.
Supported by the Schumacher family, the film charts the German’s rise from his father’s karting track in Kerpen to becoming Formula 1’s most successful ever driver, claiming 91 victories and seven world championships with Benetton and Ferrari.

However, SCHUMACHER also promises to show a different side to a driver often viewed as a relentless winning machine, with rare interviews, home videos and previously unreleased footage portraying a man who, away from the spotlight, fought hard to overcome self-doubt and insecurity en route to becoming one of F1’s true greats.
