Rev up your engines, Netflix fans! This weekend marks a milestone as Netflix streams its first live Formula 1 race. That’s right, you can catch the Canadian Grand Prix from May 22-24 right from your couch.
This is a big deal because streaming services usually guard their exclusive content fiercely. However, Apple TV has shaken things up by sharing F1 rights with Netflix. This move seems natural since Netflix’s Formula 1: Drive to Survive series has revved up fans’ interest in the sport. Plus, Apple TV will also get to air the show’s eighth season.
Netflix has been expanding its live event offerings, and this is just the latest in a series of moves, like streaming Major League Baseball and BTS events. So, if you’re a fan of high-speed chases and pit stop dramas, make sure to tune in this weekend.
Stay tuned for more updates on how streaming giants are reshaping live sports. Who knows what they’ll stream next?
