ESPN Extends F1 TV Deal in United States through 2025

Formula 1 will remain on ESPN in the United States through 2025 after a three-year extension was announced on Saturday.

F1 returned to the ESPN networks in 2018 and viewership has gradually increased, peaking with a record 2.6 million at the inaugural Miami Grand Prix in May. Average viewership has also increased this year from a race-day average of 949,000 in 2021 to 1.2 million.

In a statement, Formula 1 outlined that at least 16 of next year’s 24 Grands Prix will air on ABC or ESPN, while all race broadcasts will continue throughout the ESPN network as a commercial-free presentation.
