If you try to access F1TV via a VPN from your country where F1TV Pro is not available (like the UK) it will no longer play the full race videos and displays an geographical error code…
Polite reminder not to discuss piracy or workarounds for region locks in here. Thanks all!
That’s why people return to piracy.
Is there a community for F1TV where I can follow this better¿?
At least for now, F1TV Pro works fine for me here in Germany. I’ve been using it since 2021 without a VPN (only used a VPN for signing up once) and never had any issues.
We’ll see if it works this weekend.
Else I’ll have to get the Sky package. I don’t even mind paying more to be honest, it’s just that F1TV is so nice to use and has great third-party apps (like MultiViewer), plus I really enjoy their commentary. I’m not even sure if I can at least get the English Sky commentary with Sky Germany…

Which costs 6 times as much, and as far as I know it doesn’t have English commentary, doesn’t have archive races, doesn’t have free choice of cockpit cams, doesn’t have Formula 2 and 3. (Correct me if I’m wrong.)
It’s just a bad deal. If F1TV ever stops working in Germany for legacy subscriptions then I either have to stop watching F1 or look for other sources. ~5 euros per month is a fantastic price, I’d even pay 10 or 15 for that. But not 30 euros for the Sky package with a lot less features.
Woah what the fuck. Isn’t that illegal in the EU? I’m in Italy. AFAIK there’s no way TO watch the race in English without F1TV.
Isn’t that illegal in the EU?
It is. But the UK chose to leave the EU, and this is one of the many “perks” they now have.
