    Despite this being a pretty exciting reason with the title race, I just haven’t bothered after I wasnt able to renew with f1tv. They offered the product I wanted at the right price. I’m not interested in paying twice as much for a bunch of other stuff I’m not planning to watch.

      I mean, I understand the sentiment, but:

      1. F1TV Pro is $85 per year

      2. AppleTV is $99 per year, which is more, but…

      3. AppleTV gives you F1TV Premium, which is $130 per year on its own, and finally,

      4. you can still use the F1TV app.

      I literally haven’t changed anything about how I watch from last year. It’s certainly not twice as expensive.

        This is my experience. We already have Apple TV so it saved me money. I still use the F1 app to steam to my TV and keep a tablet open on my lap watching specific drivers like always.

          This was the same for us — we already had Apple TV and I had the MLS pass, so I’m saving the $85 a year not buying an F1TV standalone subscription. And saving the MLS pricing as well because that’s been rolled into Apple TV now for no additional cost.

        I thought I saw the process a $18 per month, but if it’s just $99 per year, I might get it. It would let me watch MLS games as well for the upcoming season.

        The native F1TV experience has dramatically worsened recently though. I watch on a media PC through my browser and can not get the playback to work without disabling MultiView entirely.

        I paid $85, I refuse to pay more than $85. I don’t want F1TV Premium or anything on AppleTV.
