Sky Sports has unveiled its 2026 Formula 1 coverage plans ahead of the season opener in Australia, featuring GRAMMY-nominated artist Tate McRae's 'Just Keep Watching' as the new title track. The British broadcaster is preparing for one of the most anticipated F1 seasons in recent years, with new cars and rule changes coming into play. As the only UK and Ireland broadcaster showing every practice, qualifying session, and race live through 2029, Sky Sports continues its dominant position in F1 coverage.

Building on year-on-year viewership growth, Sky Sports is introducing innovative broadcast features for 2026. A new immersive sidebar will give fans unprecedented flexibility during race weekends, offering Race Control views, in-race standings, and dedicated driver pages with onboard cameras and enhanced data. The service will be available to Sky Glass, Sky Stream, and Sky Q customers later this season. Additionally, F1 fans can select onboard live streams of any of the 22 drivers complete with team radio messages for every session.

The comprehensive coverage includes Bernie Collins guiding viewers from the pit wall during qualifying and races, while the SkyPad analysis team of Anthony Davidson and Karun Chandhok continues to dissect on-track action. The Grid Walk will provide exclusive pre-race insights, and Ted Kravitz returns with his popular Notebook segments. With a star-studded lineup including Martin Brundle, Jenson Button, Nico Rosberg, and Naomi Schiff, Sky Sports is positioning itself as the definitive destination for F1 fans ahead of the Australian Grand Prix this weekend.
