Want to see the Australian GP? The race – the third of the 73rd Formula One World Championship – will begin at 2:00am ET / 11:00pm PT and will be televised in the US over ESPN. However, there are some other options for people traveling abroad and tuning in from other countries, including a free live stream from the Australian GP. With the racers soon ready to hit the track, time is running out to figure out how you’re going to tune in. Here’s everything you need to know to watch today’s F1 live stream.

Watch the Australian GP live stream now
The Australian Grand Prix is broadcast free of charge in Australia, Austria and Luxembourg. This is great news for those in the countries, but devastating for residents traveling abroad who want to watch the action live in their local language – especially when it’s free to watch at home. It’s only fitting that an Austrian currently residing in the United States would want to watch the race in Austrian rather than English, right? This is absolutely safe and legal with a VPN like ExpressVPN. Just install it, choose the location you want to connect to, and then start broadcasting. The free streams are 10 Play in Australia, ORF in Austria or RTL Zwee in Luxembourg.
Unfortunately, there is no free Australian GP live stream available for residents of other countries. Elsewhere, people need to tune in through a local broadcast partner. The race is available on ESPN in the United States, and the best way to tune in is through on ESPN Hulu with Live TV. In the UK it is available on Sky Sports F1 and in Canada it is broadcast in English on TNS and in French on RDS. There are a few other options available too – below we’ll talk you in more detail about the different ways you can tune in locally in the United States, including how you can save on a Hulu membership.
Watch the Australian GP on Hulu with Live TV

Hulu with Live TV is our most popular streaming package, so it’s worth checking out. At its core, it’s a cable TV replacement tailored for cable cutters – those who choose to completely replace their cable or satellite TV service in favor of online streaming apps. However, Hulu with Live TV now includes the Disney bundle (formerly this was an optional premium add-on to the Hulu with Live TV plan), making it perhaps the most comprehensive streaming package out there, as well as the best banger for you buck.
Hulu’s core live TV plan includes more than 75 TV channels (the exact number depends on your local market), including ESPN, so it’s good if you want to watch the Australian GP today. It’s great for other sports too as it also includes channels like NBC, Fox, CBS and more – NBA, NFL, PGA, NCAA, NHL, it’s all there. And with ESPN+, you can even stream UFC fights and pay-per-views, along with all the other sports content that ESPN+ offers.
As the name suggests, Hulu comes with Hulu ad-supported with Live TV, so you can enjoy thousands of shows, movies, and Hulu Originals. Plus, Disney+ has everything a Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars fan could want. For $70 a month (or $76 a month if you want to upgrade to ad-free Hulu), Hulu makes a mountain of live and on-demand entertainment available with Live TV, and it’s the best option to watch F1 live streams online if that’s what you’re looking for.
Watch the Australian GP on Sling TV

Hulu with Live TV might be the biggest streaming package on our list, but if you don’t want that and are more interested in a more budget-conscious streaming package (and one that lets you watch the Australian GP live on the web), Sling TV is another top choice. Sling offers two plans: Sling Orange includes three ESPN channels among its 32 TV channels, while Sling Blue includes other sports channels, but not ESPN, in its 42-channel offering. Each plan costs $35 per month.
Note that the plans share many channels, so there’s some overlap, but only Orange offers ESPN. Those looking to stream F1 races online should at least go for the Sling Orange plan, as Blue doesn’t offer ESPN channels. However, you can combine the two into Sling Orange & Blue for $50, which is the best value option. This gives you all the channels of both the orange and blue channels – 50 channels in total – and is a great option for sports lovers.
The Orange plan’s three ESPN channels let you watch F1 live streams to your heart’s content, while the Blue plan’s sports channels include Fox Sports, NBC and the NFL Network for more live action. Hungry for more? You can always sign up for ESPN+ separately ($7 per month or $70 per year) to complete your sports streaming loadout, and you’ll still pay less than the other streaming packages on our list.
Watch the Australian GP on YouTube TV

Both Hulu with Live TV and Sling TV offer up to three simultaneous streams and 50 hours of cloud DVR recording, but if you’re looking for something better for an environment where multiple people regularly stream simultaneously, YouTube TV is for you consider. With more than 85 channels to choose from, YouTube TV offers the widest TV selection of these three streaming packages, including four ESPN Channels so you can watch Australia live stream and other F1 races live. Other sports channels in the YouTube TV offering include NBC Sports Network, CBS Sports, Fox Sports, Golf Channel, NFL Network and Motortrend. That should give sports lovers plenty to chew on.
Of course, you don’t get Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ with YouTube TV, but you can always sign up for those (or the full Disney bundle) separately if you want. The trade-off is that you get a few more advantages over Hulu with live TV. For starters, you can watch it on up to 10 devices simultaneously, making it a great choice for households with a lot of frequent streamers. You also get unlimited cloud DVR recording so you can download your favorite content and watch it offline whenever you want.
YouTube TV costs $65 per month, which is priced between Hulu with Live TV and Sling TV. With so many channels to choose from, including pretty much the full range of sports channels, YouTube TV is a great value if you’re not into the Disney bundle and want more than what Sling TV gives you. And with four ESPN channels in the mix, it’s a great way to watch the Australian GP livestream as the 73rd Formula One World Championship gets underway.
