TV News: How to Watch Colton Herta in Formula 2 this year
If USA fans want to watch American Colton Herta (pictured) on TV this year as he tackles the Formula 2 series, you must first have an Apple TV subscription.

If you intend to view all the Formula 2 practice, qualifying and race sessions via Apple TV, they will be tape delayed about 5 days. Open the Apple TV app and search for or navigate to the “Formula 1 Channel”. The channel will feature full replays, detailed highlights, and analysis for F1, F2, and F3, plus live F1 Academy races, but only F1 will be live at this time.
However, there is good news for those who want to watch live. For live, uninterrupted viewing of F2, users need to use the F1 TV app, which needs to be linked with your Apple TV subscription. We were prompted to do so; the link worked, and we can see all the F2 scheduled sessions. The F1 TV app is available for the iPhone and iPad. It is also available on Fire TV, but the F2 sessions only appear on Apple devices, from what I can tell.
Steps
- Have your Apple TV and Formula1.com account credentials handy. If you do not have a Formula1.com account, go to https://www.Formula1.com and sign up. It is free.
- Install the Apple TV and F1 TV App on your device.
- First sign into Apple TV.
- Then launch the F1 TV App, press the button to sign in, and it will prompt you to sign into your F1 account (i.e. your Formula1.com acct.)
