Formula One 2020 to Air Live and Stream Free Online in Australia

The 2020 Formula One season is now underway in what is one of the biggest sporting events on the planet. With teams competing for the Constructors Championship and drivers striving to be World Champion, there is always plenty of wheel to wheel drama on the F1 track.

Running until December, Formula One is a constant presence for any sports fan. With a key stretch of the 2020 F1 season set to get underway, fans want to keep up-to-date with what time the sessions take place and how to watch the next race live – the Russian GP, from 25-27 September.

Here’s how to ensure you don’t miss any of this season’s action:

2020 Formula One Live TV Guide

The 2020 Formula One season marks the 71st year since the formation of the organisation. 17 races will take place initially between July and December in this unique calendar year. The races will take place across Europe, with additional races expected to be confirmed for later in the year, and possibly into 2021.

A man the rest of the drivers will be trying to stop is Lewis Hamilton, the British driver having now won three Drivers Championships in a row and five of the last six – with only Nico Rosberg stopping him in 2016. Hamilton is chasing down Michael Schumacher’s record of 7 world titles (he currently has 6), and he will head into the 2020 season as favourite to get on par with the German. Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc, along with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, look the most likely candidates to put a stop to Mercedes’ dominance, while Hamilton’s Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas will also be in the mix.
