With just 25 points separating the two McLaren drivers at the top of the F1 standings, the tension in the Drivers’ Championship is beginning to mount ahead of Sunday’s crucial Singapore Grand Prix at the spectacular Marina Bay Street Circuit. 

Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the race as it happens, wherever you are in the world. 

McLaren will be hoping for a much better display after a disastrous showing last time out at the Azerbaijan GP, which saw championship leader Oscar Piastri suffer a first-lap crash.  

Lando Norris was unable to fully capitalise on his teammate and title rival’s misfortune, finishing in a disappointing seventh. Max Verstappen claimed a second successive victory to keep alive the Red Bull driver’s outside hopes of retaining his crown.

The Singapore GP takes place at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday, Oct. 5, at 8 p.m. SGT local time. Starting time in the US and Canada is 8 a.m. ET (5 a.m. PT). In the UK that’s a 1 p.m. BST start. Australian viewers will meanwhile be looking at a 11 p.m. AEDT start.

The entire race weekend, including practice sessions and qualifying, will be shown in the US on ESPN’s family of TV and streaming networks. Folks who want to follow the whole race weekend will need access to the ABC and ESPN news channels on cable or live TV streaming services, or the ESPN Plus streaming service.

Every Formula One race during the 2025 season will be televised on ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC. All practice and qualifying sessions and all F1 Sprint events also will be broadcast. This race will be carried on ESPN. 

Selected races will also stream on ESPN Plus, featuring two alternate streams for all races (Driver Tracker and mixed onboard cameras).

ESPN’s standalone streaming service is great for casual fans of F1 and is a must-have accessory for fanatics. It costs $12 a month or $120 a year. 

If you’re an F1 fan who’s also looking to get your Disney fix, the Disney trio bundle (Hulu, Disney Plus and ESPN Plus) might end up being an even better buy. It’s great for fans who love catching the parts of the race weekend that typically air on ESPN2 or ESPNews, and also want the latest Marvel movies or Star Wars shows.

If you’re a diehard fan of motorsports and Formula Series racing, ESPN Plus might not be for you, given that it rarely covers F2, F3 or Porsche Supercar racing. That’s why ESPN Plus is ideal for casual fans who enjoy catching a race every once in a while or fans who don’t want or need all of the extra bells and whistles of F1 TV but want to beef up their coverage options.
