Hi, I am from Czech republic and we dont have F1 TV Pro. We have only F1 TV Access. Do you think I can subscribe F1 TV Pro if I use VPN and connect for example to Germany or Austria. And can I watch F1 races in English or is it possible only in German language. Thank you so much
This works, but you have to subscribe to F1 TV Pro using the iOS/Android app through the credit card connected to your Apple ID/Google account. If you use the site, theyāll notice that the credit card is not registered in the country youāre registering.
Iāve done the same thing last year in Canada. Set my VPN to the US and sign up through the iOS app. Works flawlessly.
Having the same issue. If anybody has a solution for this it would be amazing!
I bought in poland and im using vpn to switzerland its works so i think it will be ok
Anyone finding this in 2022. It works perfectly including casting.
Setup
- Download F1 App on iOS
- Turn on VPN to a country that allows it.
- Sign up and subscribe through the app (Hides your CC location).
- Casting from iOS doesnāt work butā¦
Desktop Casting:
- Once youāre set up on iOS, you can log in through Chrome using a VPN, access the videos and streams then cast to your local Chromcast device without issue.
Same as you Iām from Czechia and bought the F1 Package without realising that I cant even watch the fucking races. Makes me so angry to even think about it. I recommend just r/motorsportsstreams to watch the races, itās less hassle than a VPN, plus a VPN will make your stream very slow unless you have a great connection. Also itās freeā¦
Does anyone know if the check is on issuing card country, or do they now use AVS (address verification)
Can not get to work on android/google
May I bump this thread in readiness for the 2023 season? Can anyone confirm if this is still working in 2023?
Whatās steps did you use??
Iām UK based
Thanks in advance!
You just helped me alot even though itās been 2years. Thank you good sir.
Thank you:) And do I have to use VPN all the time I use the app or only during the first payment? Thank you
How do ya pay though? I only have Canadian credit cards
I signed up yesterday on my google store using PayPal, while in the Netherlands - so connected to their ISPs.
Now Iām in Germany and it doesnāt matter what VPN connection I use, it still doesnāt work!
Do you have any ideas why?
Hi, thanks for the instructions, how would you pay without showing your actual location? How did you overcome this?
For me this didnāt work. No matter what VPN I use it still recognises my country.
I cannot create an F1 account with any VPN active. I get a āsomething went wrong errorā.
Thanks so much for these instructions - I managed to do it with Express VPN using Netherlands, although I also had to turn off mobile data and then once my purchase was successful I had to restore purchase. But all good and working now!
Hey u/PoorlyBuiltRobot can I pick your brains on this?

Iāve just done this on Android. Got F1TV app installed. Set it to USA on Surfshark (ironically had a US based F1 account from when I lived there, in UK now). Went and āpaidā via app and it now shows in my Google Play subscriptions, F1 TV pro for Ā£6.99. All works as well when streaming etc.

I set the payment method to PayPal, and its the 7-day free trial that will charge me next Friday. That should all work and go through automatically, right? I am assuming it will just charge as if its any other google subscription such as Google Drive storage, and just bypasses F1ās own checks etc?
Does it check you country when you log onto f1 tv pro?
F1 TV Pro is a lot cheaper in brazil than everywhere else, so could you buy it there and then use the app in another country?
when i try subscribing the prices are still in gbp, is that correct ?
