I know it’s a rookie question, but what are some good sites to stream F1 races in English?

    #Notice We shall be banning discussion around F1 piracy in this community next week.

    We will not take any actions until the rules are posted in their entirety in the sidebar.

    Would recommend F1TV as you’re in the US. It’s very reasonably priced, and has loads of extra functionality and a reasonable picture quality.

    Can’t imagine watching F1 on a dodgy stream at 25fps.

    While you most likely ment free services, I cannot recommend F1 TV top much. It costs only 10€/M which for me is 1.5 beers in bar less every month. I have been able to share my account with few friends and quality is really good.

      I’m paying 8€ monthly somehow?! And it’s really great and only gets better with multiviewer for f1. Being able to see multiple camera positions at once and - as of late - live transcriptions of team radio - is so much fun

          In which country did you subscribe? I had to subscribe on “holiday” in the netherlands because f1tv is not available in my region

            I did it on a… trip to France for the same reason, since I didn’t feel like paying Sky almost 40€ a month for the full sports package

              Sky sucks balls. The technology, the user support, the prices, and even the content is lacking. Especially when compared to f1tv

                Never tried Sky, but as long as they don’t suck my balls I don’t see a reason to.

    You haven’t stated your geographic location… but the common paid/legitimate approach is https://f1tv.formula1.com/ if it’s available in your area. If you are a sky subscriber, I think they have an online thing too.

    Mods are working on community rules, and starting next week discussion of pirate sources will be against community rules. For now they’re taking no action on piracy threads and than to make an advisory comment similar to this one (I’m not a mod though), as they haven’t finalized/published the rules. But non-legit sources won’t be kosher to discuss next week.

      If it’s not available I just recommend subscribing using a vpn. Actually watching is possible without vpn once you have subscribed

    Going to also recommend f1tv, not just because it’s reasonably priced but because unlike most crap like sunday ticket, it also gives you access to a massive trove of full race replays dating back multiple decades. (Further back, you don’t get the full season, but there’s still a TON there)
