Netflix is back at it, and this time they’re bringing even more horsepower to your screens. If you thought last season of “NASCAR: Full Speed” was wild, just wait until Season 2 drops on May 7. The new trailer’s already out, and let’s just say it looks like we’re in for a lot more than just fender-bending action.
One of the sweetest surprises? Chase Briscoe and his growing family are taking center stage in a way that’ll hit you right in the feels.
Chase Briscoe’s Big Year: Racing, Twins, and Netflix Fame
For those who aren’t glued to NASCAR every Sunday, Briscoe drives the No. 19 Toyota Camry XSE for Joe Gibbs Racing. He’s one of those drivers who wears his heart on his sleeve — fiery on the track, just as passionate about family life off it.
And speaking of family, 2024 has been a monster year for Briscoe and his wife, Marissa. On Oct. 8, they welcomed not one, but two little bundles of joy — twins. And the Netflix cameras were right there, capturing some of their real-life, no-filter moments.
In a recent interview, Briscoe opened up about letting Netflix follow them during such a huge moment.
He said, “It was a very unique part of our life. Just the window of when it all happened. I wasn’t even going to be on the show, and then we went to Darlington. And then the playoffs are starting next week, and you’re on Netflix now. Marissa was three or four weeks away from having the twins at that point. There was a lot just happening in our life at that part.”
“But it was kinda cool to get to know all these guys and get to see the kind of stuff they do behind the scenes to make the full show,” he added. “It was really neat to just be a part of this unique opportunity, and being on Netflix is a huge deal for not only myself but all of our partners as well.”
Drama, Playoffs, and Real-Life Moments
Of course, “Full Speed” Season 2 isn’t just about baby bottles and sleepless nights. It’s still NASCAR, after all — expect high-stakes drama from the last 10 races of the 2024 Cup Series season, including the intense playoff battles.
The trailer teases some jaw-dropping moments, like Joey Logano’s elimination drama and the heated fight for a Championship 4 spot at Martinsville between William Byron and Christopher Bell. All the heavy hitters are back too — Ryan Blaney, Daniel Suárez, and more.
Produced by NASCAR Productions, Words + Pictures, and Netflix, the series gives an inside look at what it really takes to live life at 200 mph — and what happens when the helmets come off at home.
With engines set to roar and emotions running high, one thing’s for sure: Season 2 is about to show the world that NASCAR isn’t just about speed — it’s about family, passion, and chasing dreams.
