Last year I believe Foxtel signed a multi-year contract for exclusive rights in Aussie, so Foxtel (iirc they have a way of accessing F1TV Pro for free on the Foxtel boxes, doesn't work on PC/etc) and Kayo are probably the only options.

That Foxtel/F1TV thing caused a lot of confusion in the Multiviewer community.

Did anyone see this over on Twitter?

Had a work trip to Sydney late in the season and thought I'd use F1TV whilst over there. No bueno. I think I could watch live, but not on replay/demand (which was what I tried to do). Was annoyed at myself for not setting up a VPN to home on the work laptop.

The F1 team formerly known as "Alpha Tauri" and before that "Torro Rosso" and originally as "Minardi" will now be known as ...

The "Visa Cash App RB" F1 team

Sign him up for DNS4Me as well & he can switch the DNS location to NZ.

Jaxson: Visa crash app?

I can imagine the commentators not being able to resist the temptation of announcing that "Visa Cash App has crashed again!"
LOL

OMG that's amazing!

Jaxson: Those who have had f1 tv pro, are there race replay and quicker summary videos available after the race?

If so how long before they are available?

I know YouTube has their 10min race summaries around breakfast time the next day for example. So that’s like 6-7 hours later sort of thing.

I tended to watch the European races live so I can't speak to your question definitively but, in terms of full replays I do believe that they are available immediately.  When you open a race feed you do have the ability to either watch from the start of the stream, or watch live if you are coming in late.  I can recall one of the races (which had a huge delay due to poor weather) I came in late and watched from the start, then fast forwarded through the faffing about in the pits during the weather stoppage.

As for the highlights and 30 minute race summary videos, I can't be sure.  I don't think it's 6-7 hours delay as with your YouTube example.  I would often combine the FP1 and FP2 into one viewing session or the same with FP3 and Quali, never noticed that I would need to wait for highlights at any point.

I find F1TV to be excellent value for what it costs, about the only downside for me is the commentary of Alex Jacques so I tend to select the "International" commentary option which is the Sky UK Croft/Brundle combo, but that's a personal taste thing obviously. Also, a twelve month subscription to F1TV appears to be the full year from when you sign up.  I didn't sign up until the first race weekend in 2023, so I still have access to the service currently. Hope that helps.

Replays of almost everything is available almost immediately after the race. Not sure how long it takes for them to do the summary though, sorry. Think it is maybe a few hours.

We need a F1 2025 discussion thread now!
