What to Expect From the Netflix Broadcast?
Netflix is picking up the direct broadcast feed from Apple — this does include sections before the race and after it with F1TV hosts. However, Netflix is not carrying a separate pre- or post-show of its own — just the main broadcast.
Commentary is led by Alex Jacques alongside former F1 driver Jolyon Palmer, supported by a roster of paddock experts including David Coulthard, Ruth Buscombe, Sam Collins, Alex Brundle, and newly added seven-time race winner Juan Pablo Montoya. Spanish-language commentary is also available. What’s on Netflix
On ads: for subscribers not on the ad tier, expect minimal ad breaks — mostly for upcoming Netflix shows and movies.
Why Is This a Sprint Weekend?
This Canadian Grand Prix is one of the six Sprint weekends on the 2026 F1 calendar, meaning there are even more qualifying sessions and wheel-to-wheel battles across the three days. The Sprint race is run on Saturday, making this one of the most action-packed race weekends of the entire season. Netflix Tudum
The Canadian Grand Prix at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve has a long history of producing some of F1’s most dramatic moments — and a Sprint format only raises the stakes further.
Who Can Watch on Netflix?
The Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix live stream on Netflix is only available in the United States. Fans outside the US can still watch the event live on Apple TV.
Missed it live? Don’t worry. Netflix will not remove the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix from its platform until the end of the current F1 season — so replays are there whenever you’re ready.
