All footage is filmed and dictated to by “F1” its then brought buy others, who all receive the same footage timings graphics camera angles etc but are allowed to add commentary and addition coverage behind the scenes. Sky presenters are obnoxious , bias and not good. I've 40 plus years off f1 in my lifeInteresting perspective. I suppose it's a matter of what you get used to. I live in California and normally watch on ESPN which is Sky F1's coverage and I really like the blend of Brundle, Crofty, Chandhock etc.. The image quality sucks.
I don't gel with the F1TV hosts at all - despite the higher quality streaming. Also - I watched the Silverstone GP this past weekend in the UK and it didn't seem all that different to Sky's coverage.
Be interesting to see how Apple handles it if they secure the rights. Something like https://www.lapz.io/ would be amazing with AVP.
F1 will be going back to V8 in a few years. These hybrids are way too expensive and complicated (not to mention boring from a racing viewpoint).F1 is a big driver of carbon neutrality. The engines are the most efficient hybrids in history. Next year they are moving all of the vehicles to carbon capture based fuels.
Wanna bet.They can't do much worse than rebroadcasting the Sky News feed.
Girls love F1 for some reason. No clue why but they do.

Because it's dangerous
I can't lie... the guys are cute. But I was also a bit of a daddy's girl growing up, and, well, he worked at various car dealerships throughout my childhood, so I fell in love with cars early on. When I took him to see the F1 movie last week, he enjoyed it so much that he said, "if we had time, I'd stick around and watch it again!" We ended up going to see it again in IMAX Laser later last week, and I even got a lot of of the story, on top of getting so much out of seeing my dad enjoying himself.Because Brad Pitt.![]()
I don't see the appeal in F1 at all. Weird pick.
Formula 1 viewership doubled from 554,000 to around 1.1 million in 2024, rising further to 1.3 million in the first 10 events tis year.
lol you're concerned about the carbon footprint but are using ChatGPT whose data centers require immense amounts of power to run?Sounds good, but what about the tires? Quite heavy use of those.
I asked ChatGPT and it seems there’s also progress on the tires, so good. But still must be quite an impact?
Anyway, what irritates me more is all the unnecessary idle driving a lot of people do every day. I understand there is quite a huge amount of gas that would be saved globally if people stopped that.
It will probably be a separate subscription though just like MLS. There's already a pretty solid F1TV app for Apple TV and it now supports 4K and other features that aren't found on other platforms. This season only Apple and Roku supported the new 4K streaming package, with some features only working on Apple TV.Seems like a good idea.
More value add for ATV+ would be a good thing.

Apple balked at the nfl deal because they wanted to be the only game in town. It would be weird to resell F1 coverage with F1TV right there with a fully featured package in the App Store.It will probably be a separate subscription though just like MLS.

Yes, we have it at work (paid). So might as well use it. Each prompt doesn't do much, but of course its total has a considerable carbon footprint. But I think/hope it is worth it in this case – that the return of what it gives back is better.lol you're concerned about the carbon footprint but are using ChatGPT whose data centers require immense amounts of power to run?
But the fuels are 100% sustainable going forward. It’s made from agricultural waste, no prime growth ingredients allowed, and it’s a “drop in” fuel, compatible with modern internal combustion engines, so not like E85 which requires special parts. At scale the fuel F1 will be using (and F2 already is using) can be put in any car, so it’s a path forward to a sustainable fuel for everyone.

Different stroke, etc.I don't see the appeal in F1 at all. Weird pick.

That’s good, but not the only aspect. Tire wear is a major source of microplastics in the environment.
Work-from-home solves a lot of that - talk to middle management and executives who are made nervous about not being able to stare at their employees during the day, despite any gains made in productivity. EVs also help in this regard - still vehicles on the road, but at least not burning anything.Anyway, what irritates me more is all the unnecessary idle driving a lot of people do every day. I understand there is quite a huge amount of gas that would be saved globally if people stopped that.
yes. again. I don't see the appeal. I don't know why you quoted this piece of the article.Formula 1 viewership doubled from 554,000 to around 1.1 million in 2024, rising further to 1.3 million in the first 10 events tis year.
Oops thanks McQueen then and Garner. That was last century so exact details are fuzzy.Grand Prix was James Garner, and Steve McQueen was Le Mans. I re-watched Grand Prix earlier this year, after being reminded about it by the "And, colossally, that's history!" podcast from Matt Bishop and Richard Williams, two long time motor racing journalists and Matt also ran communications for McClaren and Aston Martin in the noughties and teens, so they know the big names of F1 personally, from the 60s on.
If you like F1, especially its rich history, it is a brilliant podcast to subscribe to - it is run through "The Atheletic".
I am not in NYC Thank GodI hear ya, but I live in the suburbs of Raleigh, NC, and public transportation is pretty much non-existent. And riding bikes on these curvy backroads is a recipe for death. With that said, we have two EVs.
My family and I were in NYC this past week, and I loved using the subway and how everything is a relatively short walk or ride away. However, the prices for everything is INSANE. According to Bankrate, the cost of living in Manhattan is 140% higher than where I live -- ain't nobody got time for that!![]()
