I don't mind paying a streamer, it's ridiculous that sky have the monopoly on F1 in the UK, and it feels like VPNs are being dos attacked this weekend

Tried IPTV streamers, just get ratio'd on race day

Tried F1TV pro account bought in Turkey with VPN. Last race they banned VPNs which surfshark sorted before race time but today their internet speeds are 90's ISDN levels mixed with a 9.6k modem....

I have Stremio and add-on's, is there something like that for live sports?

I used to use https://v2.sportsurge.net/home2/ , you can usually find a working stream.

Nowadays i use https://sportscult.org, it's a private tracker that also offers live tv, and i haven't really done anything but watch f1 on there. Less ads/buffering. They have open signups every now and then.

I kept an eye on https://www.reddit.com/r/trackersignups/ (well the previous one calles r/opensignups, they open registratations every 2-4months for a couple of days usually.

I never tried donating, and it is a private tracker most foremost, torrenting replays and the likes. Live TV is just an addition, so I'd be a little weary of donating for something that isn't the main objective of said site.

you could also try your luck asking in that weekly reddit thread for an invite, it might work out

Have you tried watching F1TV without a VPN after registering?

Works for me, even though F1TV Pro isn't normally available where I'm from.

Yep, gets geo blocked to highlights only.
