The 2026 Formula 1 season kicks off this weekend, with the Australian Grand Prix as the first race of the season. If you are in the United States, the sport has a new broadcast home: all races are streaming with an Apple TV subscriptionlive and on demand.
You can watch in the Apple TV app across iPhone, Android, Mac, Apple TV 4K set-top box, Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, Fire Stick, Roku and more platforms. You can also watch online at tv.apple.com.
This deal is exclusively available in the United States. All you need to watch is an Apple TV subscriptionpriced at $12.99 per month or $99 per year. You can also get Apple TV as part of the Apple One bundle. But you’ll need a US region Apple Account and be physically located inside the US for this to work.
If you don’t yet have a subscription, you can get a free seven-day trial here. Also, all practice sessions are streaming for free, in front of the paywall, if you just want to get a taste.
In the Apple TV app, you’ll find a dedicated Formula 1 section. On race weekends, this section will feature quick links to start watching the current live sessions, in up to 4K HDR quality with a surround sound audio track. You can choose either the F1.TV or the international Sky video feed, so you can listen to your preferred commentary team.
Driver onboard views and some alternate streams are also available as options. On Apple TV 4K, iPad, and Vision Pro, you can also watch multiple streams simultaneously with Multiview mode.
Here’s the schedule for the Australian Grand Prix, in Eastern Time:
Practice One: Thursday, 8:30 PM ET
Practice Two: Friday, 12:00 AM ET
Practice Three: Friday, 8:30 PM ET
Qualifying: Saturday, 12:00 AM ET
Race: Saturday, 11 PM ET
If you aren’t watching live, go to the Apple TV app at any time to find replays of all the completed sessions to watch on-demand.
And if you are used to using the F1.TV app or website, you can keep doing just that — you just have to link your Apple and F1.TV accounts together.
If you aren’t able to watch, you can tune into audio commentary though the Radio tab in Apple Music. Or, follow the live timings for free through the Apple Sports app.
