How to watch in the US
Formula 1 fans in the United States will be able to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix for free after Apple TV confirmed the whole race weekend will be available to stream with no subscription needed.
The free coverage will include every on-track session from first practice on Thursday evening through to qualifying and Saturday night’s grand prix.
F1 announced a five-year partnership with Apple to become the championship’s exclusive United States broadcast partner from 2026, taking over from ESPN.
As part of this new partnership, the technology giant has offered viewing of some race weekends, such as Las Vegas and the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, for free, and has partnered with IMAX for watch parties and Netflix for the release of Drive to Survive Season 8.
