Spanish Grand Prix: The TV Schedule
Formula 1 will complete a sequence of three races in just three weeks this weekend in Spain. This Sunday, we will witness the 6th race of the season at the Barcelona-Catalunya circuit. A race weekend to follow, of course, on Motors Inside.
After a 70th Anniversary Grand Prix, dominated by Max Verstappen and his Red Bull, will we see a new driver reach the top step of the podium this weekend?
The Mercedes cars of Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas are ultimately not invincible this season; Max Verstappen and the Red Bull strategists managed to make the most of their car to lead the team to victory.
This success, last weekend, is the result of great driving, but also of perfect Pirelli tire management, whereas other teams were degrading their tires within ten laps.
Throughout the weekend, the French public will be able to find the duo Julien Fébreau – Jacques Villeneuve on Canal +, providing commentary for all sessions from Paris. Since the Canal group has been broadcasting Formula 1 since the 2013 season, TV audiences have been steadily increasing, and today there are over a million viewers for the famous “rendezvous at the first corner”.
It will also be possible to watch all the sessions in full and live on the F1 TV streaming channel.
