Formula 1 2026 — The New Era Begins

The 2026 Formula 1 season is the most anticipated in a generation. New technical regulations have completely reset the grid — smaller, lighter cars with radical aerodynamics and a 50/50 power split between the combustion engine and electric motor. Every team is building from scratch, which means the championship order is genuinely unpredictable for the first time since the turbo hybrid era began in 2014.

IPTV Elite Pro covers every session of every 2026 Grand Prix weekend: practice 1, 2 and 3, qualifying, sprint qualifying where applicable, and the race itself — all via Sky Sports F1, Canal+ F1 and ESPN, depending on your preferred language and commentary team.

F1 2026 Season Calendar — Key Races

The 2026 calendar spans 24 rounds across five continents. Highlights include:

• 🇬🇧 British Grand Prix — Silverstone — always one of the most electric atmospheres on the calendar
• 🇮🇹 Italian Grand Prix — Monza — the Temple of Speed, beloved by tifosi worldwide
• 🇲🇨 Monaco Grand Prix — the most prestigious street circuit in motorsport
• 🇯🇵 Japanese Grand Prix — Suzuka — a true driver’s circuit and frequent title decider
• 🇦🇪 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix — Yas Marina — traditional season finale
• 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix — Jeddah — one of the fastest street circuits ever built

F1 Team Coverage on IPTV Elite Pro

Every team’s races, press conferences and technical updates are covered across Sky Sports F1 and Canal+ F1. The 2026 grid includes all the established giants — Red Bull, Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, Aston Martin and Alpine — alongside the new Audi and Cadillac entries making their F1 debuts. With budget caps levelling the playing field and entirely new regulations, the 2026 season could produce the closest title fight in modern F1 history.
