Formula 1 returns to the United States this weekend for the highly anticipated Miami Grand Prix 2026 at the Miami International Autodrome. After a five-week hiatus, the championship lands in Florida for the first race of the season on American soil today. Fans in the U.S. can enjoy a favorable start time at 4:00 p.m. ET or 1:00 p.m. PT for the main race. This event marks a crucial moment in the racing calendar as drivers tackle the challenging turns around the Hard Rock Stadium. It is the perfect opportunity to experience the speed and glamour of the premier motorsport now.
Viewing habits are changing this season as Formula 1 has moved exclusively to Apple TV for all live broadcasts in the USA. To catch the action from Miami, viewers will need an active Apple TV subnoscription which now includes F1 TV Premium. This partnership simplifies access for fans looking to stream every practice session, qualifying round, and the final race in high definition. If you prefer the traditional F1 TV Pro experience, it remains a robust option available on devices like Roku and Chromecast. Staying connected to the paddock has never been easier for those following the sport from the East Coast to California.
The F1 TV Premium service elevates the home viewing experience by offering every session in stunning 4K Ultra HD and HDR quality. Subscribers can personalize their race day with the Multiview feature, allowing access to up to 26 different feeds on six devices. From onboard cameras on all 22 cars to exclusive pre-race analysis, the platform provides a deep dive into the world of racing. Additionally, fans can follow F2, F3, and the F1 Academy live to see the next generation of talented drivers competing now.
