With the brand new Formula 1 season now just days away, F1 TV has unveiled its presenter line-up and a new package of features, as it looks to bring the drama and excitement of Grand Prix racing to fans around the world.
This expert analysis will be provided by Will Buxton who returns as lead presenter alongside Laura Winter, Rosanna Tennant and Lawrence Barretto. Alex Jacques will lead the commentary team, supported by co-commentators Jolyon Palmer and James Hinchcliffe.
Formula 1 Ambassador and Channel 4 pundit, David Coulthard will also provide commentary for a number of races throughout the season, and Sam Collins will return as F1 TV’s technical analyst for the new season.
Launched in 2018, F1 TV Pro offers fans the chance to follow commercial-free live streams of every race, with additional exclusive feeds, while the less expensive TV Access provides fan with live race timing data and full race replays.
F1 TV subscribers can watch unique camera angles and access other exciting features such as driver onboard cameras, team radios, in-depth data and behind the scenes footage.
