Watch Formula 1 on Sling TV
Except for the rare broadcast on ABC, you can use Sling TV as an affordable way to stream Formula 1 racing.
Sling TV Pricing and Packages
The Sling TV subscription plans are a little weird, but that weirdness makes Sling TV the cheapest way to stream Formula 1. As long as you’re willing to do without Fox-owned and NBC-owned cable channels, you’ll only have to pay $35 per month for Sling Orange.
| Sling Orange Great Value $40.00/ month | 30+ channels ESPN New subscriber special 1 simultaneous stream | Try Sling |
| Sling Blue Great Value$40.00/ month | 40+ channels Fox, NBC, CNN, MSNBC New subscriber special 3 simultaneous streams | Try Sling |
| Sling Orange + Blue Best Value $55.00/ month | 45+ channels ESPN New subscriber special 4* simultaneous streams | Try Sling |
Sling TV also provides more customization options than any other streaming service. You can add dozens of channels by subscribing to Sling’s channel expansion packs.
Learn more about Sling TV’s pricing and packages here.
Sling TV Channels
The Sling Orange plan includes ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3 and thirty other channels. Most of these channels overlap with Sling Blue’s fifty-channel lineup. Getting ESPN along with Fox News, MSNBC, the Golf Channel and Fox Sports will require the combined Orange+Blue plan.
However, any races exclusive to ESPN+ won’t be visible on Sling TV
Learn more about Sling TV’s channel lineup here.
Sling TV Local Channels & Regional Sports Networks
It’s best to look at Sling TV as a supplement to regular over-the-air broadcast television. If you use an HDTV antenna, then a Sling TV subscription adds the missing basic cable lineup.
Why? Sling Orange does not come with any local TV stations. Sling Blue and the combination plan support local Fox and NBC stations — but only in a dozen markets. Support for regional sports networks is just as anemic.
Learn more about Sling TV’s support for local channels here.
Sling TV Supported Devices
Many streaming platforms have the Sling TV app.
- Living room devices: AirTV, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Google TV, Google Nest, Apple TV, Chromecast, Facebook Portal, Roku and Tivo Stream.

Sling TV Simultaneous Streams
Sling TV’s weirdness extends to its streaming policies. Only one device at a time can stream Sling Orange while Sling Blue works with up to three devices simultaneously. If you get the combo plan, the shared channels get the three device limit. However, the Sling Orange limit still applies. If someone is watching Duck Tales, nobody can watch Formula 1.
