F1 TV Pro cheaper (only $32.99 per year)

As a lifelong Formula 1 fan, I was thrilled to discover a way to subscribe to F1 TV Pro at a fraction of the usual cost. Typically, an annual F1 TV Pro subscription costs about $84.99 per year in the US. In some countries it’s not even available at all due to exclusive broadcast rights – for example, Germany doesn’t officially offer F1 TV Pro because local TV networks hold the rights. Facing either a high price or no access, I looked for alternatives.

I found a reliable solution through a platform called GamsGo, which let me get an official F1 TV Pro account for only $32.99 per year (around 30 €). The sign-up was straightforward: I purchased the F1 TV Pro annual plan via GamsGo’s website and immediately received an email with my F1 TV login credentials. There was no complicated setup or waiting period – I could use the account right away.

How is GamsGo able to offer such a low price? GamsGo’s business model leverages regional price differences. F1 TV Pro is much cheaper in certain countries (for instance, about $29.99 in India - roughly 65% less than the US price). GamsGo essentially purchases legitimate F1 TV subscriptions in those lower-cost regions and passes the savings on to users. In practice, this means I didn’t have to mess around with creating a foreign F1 account or using an overseas payment method; GamsGo handled all of that in the background. I simply paid GamsGo’s fee and got a working premium account. It’s an officially licensed F1 TV Pro account, just acquired from a country where the price is far lower.

This kind of account sharing/pooling approach is similar to what some people do for services like Netflix or Spotify, and GamsGo has systems in place to make sure each user gets private, stable access to the service. From my perspective, it felt no different than if I had subscribed directly – except my wallet was much happier!

VPN Requirement for Streaming

One important thing to note: while buying the subscription via GamsGo did not require any VPN or geo-trickery, watching F1 TV Pro content may require a VPN depending on where you live. In my case, since F1 TV Pro isn’t officially supported in my country, I needed to use a VPN (virtual private network) to stream the races. This is because the F1 TV website or app checks your location when you try to watch live content.

The workaround is simple: before logging in to F1 TV, I connect my device to a VPN server in a country where F1 TV Pro is available (popular choices are Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, Denmark, Poland, or the USA). Once connected, I navigate to the F1 TV site or app and log in with the credentials GamsGo provided. The VPN makes it appear as if I’m in a supported region, so the streaming works perfectly.

The good news is that you don’t need an expensive VPN for this to work. Even a free VPN service can do the job as long as it has servers in an F1-supported country. In fact, many users report that a free option like UrbanVPN is sufficient to access F1 TV Pro). I initially tried using a free VPN browser extension, and it successfully unblocked the live stream for me. Later, for more consistent performance, I opted for a paid VPN (NordVPN) which I also found through GamsGo at roughly €1 per month. The setup took me less than 10 minutes in total (including installing the VPN app and choosing a server), and everything has been running smoothly since. Now, each race weekend, I simply fire up the VPN to a chosen country and enjoy F1 TV Pro without any hiccups.

My F1 TV Pro Experience

After securing the subscription, I dove into the F1 TV Pro experience, and I must say it has been fantastic. The difference it makes for a die-hard F1 fan is immediately noticeable. The video quality on F1 TV Pro is excellent - I get HD streams (and 4K UHD for supported content/devices) with no ads interrupting the action.

One blogger in Germany reported that the stream remained rock solid even with two feeds (the main race feed and an onboard camera) running at once, with zero stutters or buffering I’ve had a similar experience: during one Grand Prix, I watched the main broadcast on my TV while also running an onboard camera feed from my favorite driver on a tablet. Both streams played simultaneously without any lag, which speaks to how robust the service is.

F1 TV Pro offers a wealth of content and features that go far beyond what a typical cable or satellite broadcast provides. F1 TV Pro includes in-depth content you won’t see on normal TV. For example, you can watch every race weekend session live, including all Practices, Qualifying, and the race itself - something many broadcasters don’t show in full). You also get unprecedented control over how you watch.

A feature I absolutely love is the ability to switch between 20+ onboard cameras in real time, complete with live team radio for each driver. It truly feels like having the F1 paddock at your fingertips. I frequently find myself using the multi-view mode: I might have the main world-feed on one screen and a specific driver’s onboard on another, all synced up. The app even provides live telemetry data, tire usage info, and track position maps as you watch, giving that “virtual pit wall” experience . Here are some of the standout features I’ve enjoyed with F1 TV Pro:

• Live coverage of every session: All practice sessions, qualifying, and the race stream live and ad-free.
• Onboard cameras & Team Radio: Ride along with any driver and listen to their radio communications in real time.
• Live data & telematics: Real-time leaderboards, lap times, tire wear, and track maps to follow the strategy and gaps.
• F2, F3, and more: Watch Formula 2, Formula 3, Porsche Supercup and F1 Academy events live (great for scouting future F1 talent).
• Exclusive shows and archives: Enjoy pre- and post-race shows, driver interviews, expert analysis, and an archive of full race replays and documentaries on demand.

The interface of F1 TV Pro (I use it via the web and the official mobile app) is in English and very intuitive. It was easy for me to navigate between live sessions, replays, and the various onboard cameras. The stream reliability has been impressive; even when I jump between different camera feeds or enable the multi-camera view, the experience remains smooth. I should note that F1 TV recently introduced a Premium tier (at $129.99/year) that adds 4K streaming and perhaps other perks, but frankly, the standard Pro plan already covers everything I need for an immersive F1 experience.

I’ve been watching on a variety of devices – my laptop, smartphone, and even casting to a smart TV – and F1 TV Pro supports all of them seamlessly. Whether I’m at home or traveling, I can follow the race with the same account. In short, the experience has been 100% worth it for me. I’m paying less than half the normal price, yet getting the full F1 fan experience. If you’re an F1 enthusiast on the fence about it, I highly recommend giving this a try - it genuinely feels like having your own personal F1 broadcast center.
