The 2026 Formula 1 season starts this weekend, and Apple TV is now the sport’s US streaming home. Here are all the details on what to expect.

Are you ready for the return of Formula 1? The 2026 season begins with the Australian Grand Prix this weekend.

The 2026 FIA Formula 1 World Championship begins this weekend on Apple TV with the Australian Grand Prix from Melbourne's Albert Park. As the new exclusive U.S. home of Formula 1, Apple TV is the place to watch every Grand Prix live and on demand – including all practice, qualifying, and Sprint sessions, along with races – all season long.

Apple's involvement with F1 began in earnest with “F1: The Movie," which was released last summer. It was a huge investment for the company from both a production and distribution standpoint, but it also became a huge hit, and Apple was front and center for it.

We’ve known Apple would follow up its blockbuster film F1: The Movie with live coverage of F1 races in 2026. Now that we’re approaching the first grand prix weekend of the year, the company has provided details on what fans can expect to see inside the Apple TV app and beyond.
