This subscription-free platform is set to launch ahead of the Miami Grand Prix, offering a plethora of racing content to cater to the diverse viewing habits of motorsports enthusiasts across the United States.

The Formula 1 Channel will provide fans with access to a wide range of programming, including race replays, highlights from F1, F2, F3, and the F1 Academy, as well as classic Grands Prix and racing documentaries.

The collaboration with C15 Studio aims to develop the Formula 1 Channel into a leading product that complements existing live broadcast options, providing fans with a comprehensive F1 experience 24/7.

Operated by C15 Studio and accessible on platforms like Samsung TV Plus, Amazon Freevee, and Pluto TV, the Formula 1 Channel aims to make premium motorsport content more accessible than ever. This strategic move aligns with the growing popularity of Formula 1 in the United States, where the sport has garnered a significant following. By introducing a free ad-supported streaming channel, Formula 1 is poised to further engage fans and attract a wider audience in the country’s thriving digital content landscape.
