F1 TV is the go-to platform for formula one fans to catch the live action on any device running on any operating system. One can watch live content, highlights, and specific replays with just a single tap. But the problem for formula one fans with the F1 TV application is not with the application. It is with the geo-restrictions that are tied to the app.
Due to the ongoing media rights of Formula 1, certain regions in the world are limited to only a few particular TV channels when it comes to Formula One races. So using the F1 TV app in such a region will not get you the content you want. You will have to stick to your TV channels. However, there is a way around it, and in this article, we will look into it all.

F1 TV Not Working In India, How to Watch?
You can download the app in India, and it is available for streaming content here, but the functionality is limited. If you go to the official F1 TV site, you will notice that India is on the list of countries that support the app, but in terms of viewing, it is stated that the country will be able to watch the replay of the recent matches sometime in 2024. Watching highlights two years later does not make sense at all. So for the Indian Formula One fan, the only option left is to use a VPN service.
Countries like the US and Canada are not restricted at all. Depending on their subscription to the F1 TV app, they can watch live matches or highlights on any of their devices that have the F1 TV application. So you can opt for a location in USA or Canada, and that would let you stream live F1 matches right here in India as well. You will have to buy a subscription plan for the app service before doing that.
