Formula 1 racing returns to Europe this week, and we have everything you need on where to watch the Austrian F1 live stream for free wherever you are in the world. We've tested plenty of international free F1 live stream options this season and can even help you watch one even if your country isn't showing the race today.

For anyone living outside of the free live stream countries listed below, geo-restrictions on the websites will block you from watching online too. Don't worry; there's a way around this. Using a VPN (virtual private network) will help simulate your device's location to be in the same country as this weekend's free Austrian F1 live stream, letting you watch along like a local. 

If you're unavailable when the race is happening, there's an extended highlights show a few hours later. Or you can see full replays on-demand with channels that showed the full race earlier. All for free.

Where to Watch a free Austria F1 live stream

This weekend's simplest option for a free F1 live stream is using a VPN to tune into one of the free European streams mentioned above. You won't get English commentary, but the data at the side of the screen provides a narrative in any language. Live driver comms are usually in English too. You could also use an online text commentary site or BBC Radio 5 Live to keep up with events behind the scenes. 

Our preferred option of all the best VPN providers is ExpressVPN, which comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee if you're unsatisfied. Better yet, you can get an extra three months for free and save 49% on a subscription.

If you insist on English commentary, you could always take advantage of Fubo's 7-day free trial in the US. If you're outside the US and want to try this option, you'll need a VPN.

The UK service, Now TV, is another option for English footage, although that service will cost £12. You can access it outside the UK with a VPN.

How to watch the Austria F1 live stream with a VPN

  • Sign up for a VPN if you don't have one.
  • Install it on the device you're using to watch the race.
  • Turn it on and set it to a country with a free live stream.
  • Head over to  ORF 1 (Austria) | RTBF (Belgium) | RTL (Luxembourg).
  • Watch on the live sections of the sites.
  • Race start: Today, 2 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. BST / 8 p.m. CET
ExpressVPN Plan

With its consistent performance, reliable security, and expansive global streaming features, ExpressVPN is the best VPN out there, excelling in every spec and offering many advanced features that makes it exceptional. Better yet, you can save up to 49% and get an extra three months for free today.

Are there extended highlights later?

In the UK, Channel 4 has an extended highlights show a few hours after the race at 6:30 p.m. BST (1:30 p.m. ET). Coverage lasts two and a half hours, so it feels like you're effectively seeing the whole race with only a few time-saving edits. It's good to see the usual runtime return after the much shorter 90-minute show for the Austrian GP earlier this month. You can tune in on the Channel 4 website online and use a VPN as outlined above to watch from outside the UK. If you're not free to watch it at this time, it will be available on-demand for free on the site, probably the day after. Although, the on-demand option is sometimes a shortened version, lasting just over an hour some weeks and closer to two hours on others. 

How to watch an F1 live stream in the US

ESPN carries coverage of Formula 1 racing throughout the season, and there's plenty of it left to enjoy too. If you don't already have access to the channel, there are a couple of cord-cutting options for you to consider. Sling TV's Orange tier is usually $40 a month, but a special offer now sees that first month's price slashed to just $15. 

Fubo TV also has ESPN but is much more expensive at $74.99 monthly. It's packed with channels, though, and is a favorite amongst cord-cutting sports fans. Better yet, you can get a 7-day free trial, so enjoy the race for free and cancel your sub before the week is up if you don't want to keep it.

Sling TV Subscription
Sling is one of the most affordable live TV streaming services you can sign up for. New members can now receive their first month for a discounted rate of just $20.
Fubo TV (Pro Plan)

FuboTV is one of the lesser-known streaming services, but it's worth considering for those who love entertainment and non-traditional sports programming. It's pricey, but there is currently a 7-day free trial, so you can take it for a spin first.

Note: Using VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.

He oversees a wide range of our eCommerce content covering deals, popular sales events, How to Watch guides, and VPN articles. He also utilizes his extensive experience in SEO and Google algorithm updates to help improve content and rankings for a wide range of our shoppable buying guides, reviews, versus content, and more. He has over 16 years of online journalism experience and a UK University degree in Journalism and Film & Media. Initially working as a freelance gaming journalist and eCommerce editor, he later joined Future Publishing in 2016 as their first-ever Deals Writer at TechRadar. Over the next six years, he became the Deals Editor at TechRadar, then Managing Editor of Hardware & eCommerce at GamesRadar before moving over to Future's mobile tech division to become the eCommerce Content Director for Android Central, iMore, and Windows Central. Over the years, Brendan has written about a wide range of subjects. Be it covering game previews at GamesCom in Germany, listing the best Amazon Prime Day deals, reviewing gaming controllers, Kindles, and folding smartphones, or even international guides on buying a mattress - he's still quite annoyed that the UK and US have different sizes and names for them. More recently, he's been covering international How to Watch guides on various sporting events like Formula 1, tennis, Champions League, cricket, or the hottest new movies and TV shows.   Outside of work, you'll find Brendan trying to make a dent in various watchlists across streaming apps or playing games on his Series X or PS5, usually downloading (hoarding) yet more Game Pass games or grumbling about how open-world games should be scrapped for a solid 10-hour experience like the Uncharted series.
