F1 TV Pro vs ESPN+

Quick answer

F1 TV Pro is the obvious pick for die-hard Formula 1 fans with its unmatched multi-feed coverage, but ESPN+ wins on sheer sports breadth if F1 is just one of many interests.

Worth knowing

F1 TV Pro lets you watch every driver's onboard camera live — that's up to 20 simultaneous feeds during a race.
ESPN+ carries UFC, NHL, La Liga, MLB, NFL (select), MLS, Wimbledon, and college sports — it's a massive multi-sport library.
F1 TV Pro's race archive stretches back to 1981, covering over 1,000 races across four decades.
In the US, some F1 races air on ABC/ESPN linear TV, making ESPN+ slightly redundant for the biggest events of the season.
F1 TV Pro broadcasts in most countries but is geo-blocked in some markets where broadcasters hold exclusive rights (e.g., Germany, UK).

F1 TV Pro lets you listen to team radio in real time — so you can hear drivers complain about their tires before the commentators even know there's a problem.

If you want

You live and breathe Formula 1 and want the deepest possible viewing experience

No other platform gives you onboard cams, team radio, live telemetry, and a 40-year archive all in one place.

→ Pick F1 TV Pro

If you want

F1 is just one of several sports you follow regularly

ESPN+ covers UFC, hockey, soccer, baseball, and more — far better bang for the multi-sport fan's buck.

→ Pick ESPN+

If you want

You want to binge classic F1 seasons and documentaries in the off-season

F1 TV Pro's archive is unmatched — thousands of historic races ESPN+ simply doesn't carry.
