F1 TV 12+

I've been an F1 fan since my first race in Long Beach 1977. I instantly found the sport captivating. I've traveled to many races over the years, but now I just watch everything I can on TV. I was losing interest a few years ago and almost gave up following the series.

The last couple of years has rekindled my passion for the sport. F1TV is a vast improvement over any network coverage in the USA. Picture and sound quality are top notch as expected. I had a slight issue signing in at first, but it's been resolved and streaming experience worked flawlessly for Bahrain. The pre and post race shows are exactly what I want available as an F1 fan. Will's grid walk talking about the cars is what I've been missing all these years...

I signed up in time to watch the Bahrain testing sessions. The in depth information provided by Sam Collins and others make this a very worthwhile subscription for me. I'll never go without F1TV again. I LOVE IT!

I use this app for every F1 race as well as some other formula races too as I live in the USA and generally it’s pretty good.
There’s a lot of lag from the live event, sometimes over a minute, and at least 30 seconds between the feeds available on here. If you weren’t aware of what actually happening at the race track, you probably wouldn’t know. There are also times when there’s so much internet lag that the so called live feeds are really blocky, or just won’t play at all.
I also don’t like how for the last season we no longer get the option to watch the world feed of the pre race show. Watching Martin Brundle doing the grid walk is quite often the best part of the weekend and we no longer get this, at least in the US. But did the price come down from last season to reflect the reduction in available live material, of course not, it went up.
Having said that, generally this app work reasonably well, I do think they need to figure out how to fill the gaps where the international live feed has commercials, and all we get is silence. But this is the best way I have found to watch F1 if you don’t have cable or satellite TV and a subscription to the channel that it’s shown on over here.

I am in love with this sport. It’s why I keep paying for this service. It’s my only access to the sport as an American. Between the atrocious quality issues most of the time, the frequency of error codes and connection disruptions, and the infrequency of having the honor and privilege to cast the events onto my tv, it’s really maddening and quite disheartening really. The sport makes an ungodly amount of money, especially from the American market, and yet all we are given in return is this buggy unreliable app that we pay a sizable sum to use. I’m forced to watch it on my tiny phone screen more than half the time because they seem to decide to either allow or prevent us from casting it onto our tv’s on a whim. Most of the time I’m watching it on 240p-540p max even with great internet connection. If I didn’t love this sport, I would have canceled this a long time ago. I think the suits in charge know this full well and rely on our love of the sport and lack of alternative access to it to justify both investing the bare minimum into the service and the refusal to make it any better. I wish I could share with you a photo of what it looks like when I cast it to my brand new Samsung OLED tv. It’s like the old distorted color bar screen of tvs of old. Remember those?
