Foxtel’s Kayo Sports will remain as the Australian home for every Formula 1 race, qualifiers, and practice sessions.
The multi-year extension with Formula 1 and Fox Sports Australia includes 4K coverage for Kayo Sports subscribers.
Foxtel Group CEO Patrick Delany said: “Kayo Sports is Australia’s sports leader with the best live sport, and our Formula 1 extension further cements our position as the premier destination for both local and international motorsport. This extension continues our commitment to growing the sport and strengthening Australians’ connection to Formula 1. We are partners in growth, and for more than a decade, we’ve proudly supported the sport’s momentum, bringing fans closer to the action every season. That shared ambition continues to deliver results, with engagement reaching new heights and the 2025 season becoming our most-watched season ever. We’re pleased to continue delivering comprehensive Formula 1 coverage to our subscribers, with every race live in 4K, alongside our popular F1®Minis, giving Australians the most comprehensive coverage of the sport. And with racing shown ad-break free, fans won’t miss a single moment.”
Ian Holmes, Formula 1’s chief media rights and broadcast officer, added, “The quality of the product and immersive experience they provide for fans takes them closer to the action, continuing to keep spectators on the edge of their seat. With new regulations, new teams, new drivers, new race locations and more, there’s never been a more exciting time to engage with the sport. As a forward-thinking, ambitious and technology-focused business, we’re thrilled to be continuing our partnership with Kayo SPORTS in taking our spectacular product to more and more fans across Australia.”
Network 10 will remain the free-to-air broadcast partner for the Australian Grand Prix.
Kayo Sports has also announced a brand-new motor racing weekly show with vertical digital extensions showcasing the latest from Formula 1, Supercars, MotoGP, and more.
Delany said: “Fans are telling us they want more during the week, so we are giving them more in a format that has demonstrated its success and popularity. We are constantly looking for ways to push the boundaries of sports broadcasting, driving continued innovation and new initiatives that elevate the experience for both our fans and our sporting partners. By expanding our stunning 4K coverage to bring customers closer to the track, and investing in dedicated, world-class programming, we are ensuring that Fox Sports and Kayo Sports remain the ultimate 24/7 destination for motorsport fans.”
