Watch in the US

Watching the Bahrain F1 Grand Prix in the US is easy, with several streaming services and channels providing coverage.

Streaming Services

If you're looking to stream the Bahrain F1 Grand Prix, you have a few options. You can watch via FuboTV, Hulu's live TV bundle, or Sling TV.

FuboTV is a streaming service that will allow you to watch the race live. Hulu's live TV bundle includes ABC, ESPN, and ESPN2, as well as ESPN+ so you can stream the practices, qualifying race, and pre-race show. Sling TV's Orange plan is a more affordable option, currently on sale for $20, and gives you access to ESPN, ESPN2, and in some areas, ABC.

Channels

The race will be broadcast on ESPN, ESPN2, and ABC. ESPN will be the primary home of F1 this season, with 18 out of 24 races airing on either ESPN or ABC, and the remaining races on ESPN2.

Other Options

For those who want to stream every race, practice, and qualifier, an F1 TV Pro subscription is a good option. It costs $10.99 per month or $85 for the entire season.

If you're looking for a more affordable option, a direct subscription to ESPN+ is a great choice, especially if you're a fan of multiple sports.

VPN

If you're a US resident but want to access international coverage of the Bahrain F1 Grand Prix, you can use a VPN to mask your IP address and access streaming services from other countries. For example, residents of Luxembourg can watch free F1 live streams on ServusTV, and a VPN will allow you to access this stream from the US. ExpressVPN is a popular choice and offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

So, whether you want to watch on traditional TV or stream the race online, there are plenty of options available in the US to catch all the action from Bahrain.
