Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix on Foxtel – The Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix roars back into Melbourne’s Albert Park this week, with Aussie motorsport fans able to enjoy more comprehensive coverage than ever before thanks to the integration of F1 TV on selected Foxtel set top boxes along with almost 40 hours of live racing coverage across the weekend.
Fox Motorsport’s Jess Yates and Mark Skaife will lead the broadcast over three epic days of F1™ and Supercars racing, which will include live feeds and special supporting content, with fans also able to enjoy over 100 hours of Formula 1™ and Supercars documentaries and classics on demand via Fox Sports and Kayo Sports.
In a big win for Foxtel subscribers, the F1 TV app will be integrated into iQ4 and iQ5 set top boxes[1] for the first time as part of an Australian-first initiative. The F1 TV app will give fans an even richer experience with access to multiple live in-race feeds, comprehensive live timing data, highlights and exclusive programming on and off the track.
An F1 TV Pro subscription will be available to Foxtel Sport subscribers with an iQ4 or iQ5 set top box at no extra cost and will also include entertainment shows, such as Technical Analysis and Paddock Live, Formula 1™ documentaries and short-form features, past event highlights and archives of races.
Kayo Sports subscribers will be able to keep up with all the action with four bonus Formula 1™ cameras – On Board, Timing, Pit Lane and Driver Tracker – with the RaceView feature allowing viewers to watch up to four different feeds at once on selected devices.[2] Kayo Minis will also be available within an hour of the end of the race for both Formula 1™ and Supercars.
