Watch Azerbaijan on Saturday, then Formula 1 in Malaysia

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix is on Saturday 26 September at 13:00 SAST, with qualifying on Friday at 14:00. Choose free ServusTV On in Austria for German commentary or NOW Sports in the UK for English Sky Sports F1 coverage. ServusTV’s season table still shows the old Baku weekend dates; use Formula 1’s updated schedule.

Next is the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia at Sepang: qualifying on 3 October at 10:00 SAST and the race on 4 October at 09:00. NOW is live in English and ServusTV On is live in Austria.

Singapore is on 11 October at 14:00 SAST: NOW is live, while ServusTV On lists a delayed replay. Austin on 25 October at 22:00 and São Paulo on 8 November at 19:00 are live ServusTV rounds; Mexico on 1 November at 22:00 is delayed there. NOW covers all these races live.

F1 TV Pro or Premium is another live-race choice where available. Check the plan offered for your country; F1 TV Access alone should not be treated as a live-race subscription.
