Apple has secured a landmark five-year exclusive U.S. streaming deal for Formula 1, cementing a major shift in how the racing league will be consumed in its fastest-growing market. The deal, reportedly valued at approximately $750 million USD, will begin in the 2026 season and make Apple TV the exclusive home for all Grand Prix events, practice, and qualifying sessions.
This massive investment follows the immense global success of the Apple Original Film, F1: The Movie, which became the highest-grossing sports film of all time. The partnership is a clear move to maximize F1’s growth, with Apple promising to deliver a dynamic and elevated viewing experience for its subscribers.

The tech giant plans to amplify F1 content across its full ecosystem, including Apple News, Apple Maps, and Apple Fitness+. By abandoning traditional cable and broadcasting exclusively on its streaming platform, Apple is making a massive gamble aimed at acquiring a younger, affluent, and technologically engaged audience.
