Sky Sports Extends F1 Broadcasting Deal Until 2034

Sky and Formula 1 have announced a new multi-year agreement that will extend Sky Sports' exclusive coverage of every Formula 1 race weekend in the UK and Ireland until the end of the 2034 season. The deal adds five seasons to the existing partnership, with Sky's Italian rights running through to the end of the 2032 season.

Under the agreement, Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland and Sky Sport in Italy will continue to broadcast every practice, qualifying, sprint and Grand Prix, alongside the streaming service NOW. The 2025 season was the most watched F1 season ever on Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland.

In the UK, highlights of every Grand Prix and live coverage of the British Grand Prix will remain available free-to-air. In Italy, every Grand Prix will air live on the dedicated Sky Sport F1 channel, with free-to-air coverage on TV8 including the live broadcast of every Italian Grand Prix.

The announcement has drawn mixed reactions from fans, with some expressing disappointment for those hoping for official access to F1 TV Pro in the UK. The deal ensures Sky remains the exclusive home of F1 in both markets for the next decade.
