If you're away from home when the Italian GP is taking place, a VPN is your best option for tuning in. A VPN gets around geo-restrictions allowing you to access your chosen F1 live stream. Try it for 30 days and get your money back if you're not happy.

Sky Sports
Pay TV network Sky has the rights to Formula 1 in the UK, meaning you'll be able to watch the Italian Grand Prix on Sky Sports – with the option of watching in in 4K HDR.

Subscribers also get to watch on the go via the Sky Go app, which is available on nearly all modern phones, tablets, laptops, PCs and consoles.

For those without Sky, the best option is a Now TV Sky Sports Monthly Pass, which includes all 11 channels, but on a less restrictive contract.

Coverage of the Italian GP begins on Sky Sports F1 at 1.55pm BST on Sunday, the France Grand Prix coverage starts at 1.55pm, with lights out at 2pm.

To access your usual streaming service from outside the UK, you'll need to download a good VPN as detailed below.

ESPN 
ESPN is on hand with comprehensive coverage of the 2022 F1 season in the US, and will be showing the Italian Grand Prix live. 

If you have ESPN as part of a cable package, you'll be able to stream the action directly through the ESPN website. You can also stream F1 live without an expensive cable subscription.

Sling TV's Sling Orange package includes ESPN channels for a bargain price of $35 a month, but right now you can save 50% on your first month – reducing the price to just $17.50. 

FuboTV, meanwhile, is an even more complete end-to-end cable replacement service, which offers ESPN and over 120 other channels on plans starting from $64.99 a month. Try the FuboTV 7-day FREE trial and take a look.

If you're looking to tune into your ESPN, Sling TV or FuboTV account while you're away from home you might find geo-blocks stop you from enjoying your content. You can use a VPN to alter your IP address, however, so that you can keep streaming as if you were at home.

The Italian GP and all other 2022 F1 action is available live in Canada via English-language TSN or French-language RDS – but they're premium channels that typically come with a pay TV package.

If either channel comes as part of your cable deal, then you'll just be able to log in with the details of your provider and get access to an F1 live stream. 

If you don't have cable, you'll be well-served by their digital platforms. The TSN Direct and RDS Direct streaming services cost just CA$7.99 a day or (much better value) $19.99 a month.

If you're travelling and unable to access your usual streams, then you’ll be well served by a VPN like ExpressVPN. They’re easy to use and will allow you to stream the Italian GP no matter where you are by making it appear as if you’re right back home.

Kayo
Aussie petrolheads are in for a fairly late one, with lights out for the Italian GP at 11pm AEST.

Pay TV network Fox Sports is showing every race of the 2022 Formula 1 season Down Under, including all of this weekend's Italian Grand Prix action. 

But if you don't have Fox as part of a pay TV package, your best option may be to sign up for the fast-emerging Kayo Sports streaming service. Better still, Kayo offers a FREE one-week trial.

After that, the Kayo Sports Basic Package costs $25 per month and allows users to stream across two devices simultaneously. The service also offers a Kayo Sports Premium Package, which provides three concurrent streams for $35 per month.

And if you’re out of the country when the iconic Italian GP airs? You can simply purchase a VPN and connect to your home streaming service to watch Formula 1 online from wherever you are.
