F1 live today: Free practice sessions at the Bahrain GP on TV and live stream
In Germany you can no longer see all Formula 1 sessions on free-to-air television. RTL’s exclusive contract expired after 30 years last season. Instead, the pay TV broadcaster Sky secured the rights to the motorsport premier class.
Via the recently launched channel Sky Sport F1 you can watch the entire race weekend live in full length. Sky provides you with exclusive content related to Formula 1 – all free practice sessions, qualifying sessions and races are of course included.
In addition, customers of the pay channel can be there live in the live stream with SkyGO. You can also secure the sports package, which includes Formula 1, with the paid SkyTicket.
You can also follow the race weekend in Bahrain on the Austrian broadcaster ServusTV , which shares the rights in our neighboring country with ORF. In Germany, the private broadcaster can be received both via cable and satellite. A live stream is also available. Right this way.
