F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream and how to watch the race in Istanbul

By Ayub Khan On Oct 8, 2021

If the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream is even half as exciting as the last race, you won’t want to miss it. The Russian GP two weeks ago had everything: a thrilling qualifying session, unexpected grid line up, a rookie driver on course for a debut win and then a downpour that changed everything.

The 2021 F1 Turkish Grand Prix starts at 8 a.m. ET / 5 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. BST on Sunday (October 10).

Poor Lando Norris, who had started on pole and led for most of the race, was left high and, er, dry when the rain fell, as he stayed on slick tires while all around him switched to intermediates. Unable to control his McLaren, he was passed by Lewis Hamilton with a couple of laps to go and eventually finished seventh.

Hamilton will be relieved to have picked up an unlikely win, but also frustrated not to have a bigger lead over title rival Max Verstappen. Despite starting at the back of the grid, the young Dutchman came home in second after choosing exactly the right time to switch to wet rubber.

All of which means that Hamilton has a wafer-thin two-point advantage over the Red Bull driver as we head towards the season’s end. There are seven races left, including the newly announced Qatar grand prix, and several of those are expected to favor Red Bull. Whether Turkey is one of them is unclear; traditionally it’s been a good track for Mercedes, but this season is anything but traditional. Don’t be surprised if the two drivers are once again battling for the lead come the closing laps.

There’s plenty of intrigue ahead of us, then, and we’ll find out what happens at the Istanbul circuit soon. The good news is that you can watch all the action online via an F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream; read on to find out how to do just that.

How to watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream for free

Most countries have an F1 live stream on one channel or another, but many of them require a subscription. However, if you’re lucky enough to live in Austria then you can watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream for free.

That’s because the race will be shown on free-to-air television on state broadcaster ORF.

If you’re based in Austria but aren’t at home for the Turkish Grand Prix, don’t worry — you can watch it via a VPN instead. We’ll show you how to do that below.

How to watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream from anywhere in the world

It’s natural that you might want to watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream from your home country, but what if you’re not there when the race is on?

Look no further than a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN makes it look as if you’re surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you’re in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.

For instance, a Brit who’s currently in the U.S. could watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream on Sky Sports, even though they’re not in the U.K.

They’re totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We’ve tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It’s fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Safety, speed and simplicity combine to make ExpressVPN our favorite VPN service. It’s also compatible with loads of devices and there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee if you want to try it out.View Deal

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you’re in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you’d select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sky Sports or another website and watch the race.

ESPN2 is the place to turn for the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream in the U.S., and there are several ways you can access it.

As well as being available through your cable service across the weekend, you can also stream the race via the ESPN app, or on the Watch section of ESPN’s website. However, you’ll need to authenticate with your satellite, cable or live TV provider credentials to watch any sessions. Also note that Formula 1 is not available on ESPN Plus, ESPN’s standalone streaming service; you need access to live ESPN channels.

ESPN2 is available through most cable packages as well as cable TV replacement services, including Sling TV, Fubo.TV, YouTube TV and Hulu with Live TV. Either way, coverage of the big race starts at 8 a.m. ET on Sunday (October 10).

If you don’t want to pay for live ESPN2 in some fashion or another, your best alternative is F1 TV Pro. This is F1’s own official F1 live stream service, and as with ESPN’s own coverage, it uses the feed from Sky Sports F1.

F1 TV Pro costs $10 per month or $80 for the season, which is much better value considering there are set to be 23 races this year. Plus you also get Formula 2, Formula 3 and Porsche Supercup races, and F1’s archive of classic Grands Prix.

And remember, if you’re usually based in the U.S. but aren’t there at the moment, you can still watch the services you already subscribe to via a VPN such as ExpressVPN — meaning you can view an F1 live stream from anywhere in the world.

If you’re not already a Sling TV subscriber, you’ll want Sling Orange in order to watch ESPN. This costs $35/month and includes dozens of other great channels. View Deal

Love sports? Then check out Fubo.TV. It’s got a 7-day free trial so you don’t need to pay up front. The channel lineup includes ESPN2, plus other top networks including Bravo, FX and MTV.View Deal

How to watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream in the UK

As usual, Sky Sports F1 will show all of the Turkish Grand Prix action, and in up to 4K resolution. The race starts at 1 p.m. BST.

You’ll need to be a Sky Sports subscriber to watch the F1 Turkish Grand Prix live stream: the Sky Sports F1 channel is available for £18 per month, and there are packages available that give you lots more channels for only a bit extra.

To follow it in ultra high-definition 4K, you’ll need to pay a little more: you’ll need a Sky Q set-top box and a package that includes both Ultra HD and Sky Sports F1. In total, that’d come to £45 a month, plus a £20 one-off payment if you’re not an existing subscriber.

A far cheaper option is to buy a Now Sports Pass. This will give you all 11 of the Sky Sports channels for a limited time, with pricing starting at £9.99 for a Day Pass and £33.99 for one month. There’s no 4K available here though.

Again, if you’re usually based in the U.K. but are elsewhere at the moment, you can still watch the services you subscribe to by using one of the best VPN services.

All sessions are broadcast on TSN, and if you receive the network through your cable or satellite provider, you can use TSN Go by signing in with your TV service credentials. Cord-cutters will want to check out TSN Direct, which comes in day- and month-long passes for $8 or $20 CAD, respectively. The TSN app will allow you to live stream the race from your phone, streaming box or supported device.

Not actually in Canada at the moment? ExpressVPN and other VPN services can help you access the services you already subscribe to.
