In 2026, Formula 1 fans will have very broad and diverse access to television and internet broadcasts in Poland. Eleven Sports will once again be the main broadcaster, holding the rights until the end of 2028 (details). Eleven Sports will also broadcast Formula 2 and Formula 3 in full on its channels featuring Polish drivers, as well as F1 Academy races. Additionally, selected F1 races will be available live in full on a free-to-air channel from the Polsat family, and highlights of all races on Polsat Sport. Broadcasts on the F1 TV internet streaming service remain unchanged, which has the widest offer but is aimed at more advanced fans who do not need to listen to commentary in Polish. In short, Formula 1 in 2026 will be widely available, which should translate into an increase in interest in Poland. On the CyrkF1 blog in 2026, a separate text with a detailed F1 broadcast schedule will appear before every race weekend.

Full Formula 1 broadcasts in 2026 in Poland on Eleven Sports

Eleven Sports will show all Formula 1 sessions live in 2026: practice, qualifying, sprints, and races. They will also broadcast the Sunday drivers’ parade, long studio programs around all sessions, and race highlights on Mondays. Even before the start of the season, they will broadcast both testing sessions in Bahrain. Formula 1 in 2026 will be aired on the main Eleven Sports 1 channel; in individual situations, F1 sessions will be shown on Eleven Sports 2. Formula 1 is treated as a priority at Eleven Sports because it guarantees them high viewership. In 2026, no significant changes in the broadcast format are expected. Eleven Sports has not reported changes in its motorsport editorial team, so the same people who worked on the broadcasts last year should return. Expect them to have correspondents at all or almost all tracks again. In 2026, Formula 2 featuring Roman Biliński, Formula 3 featuring Maciej Gładysz, and the women’s F1 Academy series will also be broadcast in full (practice, qualifying, and races) on Eleven Sports channels. In 2026, we can again count on broadcasts in 4K quality on the Eleven Sports 1 4K channel. All races and most qualifying sessions should be broadcast this way.

Eleven Sports is a package of four television channels (1-4), as well as the Eleven Sports 1 4K channel broadcasting the same schedule as channel number 1, but in 4K quality (selected broadcasts, while the rest is upscaled to this resolution). These are extra-paid channels; the monthly fee is usually 10 – 25 PLN. They are available from both satellite operators (Polsat Box and Canal+) and all cable operators. If someone has access to paid satellite or cable TV at home, they have the option to purchase the Eleven Sports channel package there.

Eleven Sports channels can also be watched legally on the Internet through various streaming services. Eleven Sports has its own such service, and their channels are also available through external partners: WP Pilot, Canal+, Polsat Box Go, Player, Sweet.tv, Megogo, Gonet.tv. Usually, the access price is 15 PLN, but in some of them, access can only be purchased in larger and more expensive packages. All services have their apps for various devices, as well as the ability to rewind broadcasts. Before the start of the season, a comparison of these services from the perspective of a person who wants to buy only Eleven Sports will appear on the blog.

Formula 1 broadcasts on Polsat channels in 2026

In 2026, Formula 1 will also be available on Polsat channels, which will show six selected races live, extensive highlights of all of them, and will be able to show F1 video materials in their news services. One of the free-to-air channels belonging to Polsat (probably Super Polsat) will broadcast six F1 races live in full in 2026. These will be broadcasts available to everyone, as this channel is available on digital terrestrial television and from all paid operators in the lowest packages. Polsat has not revealed all the races they will show in advance. We will find out about the planned broadcasts during the season. F1 commentary on Polsat will be provided by Andrzej Borowczyk and Krystian Sobierajski.

On the basic Polsat Sport 1 channel, an extensive F1 race highlight will be aired on Monday evenings, which will also be made available for free on the channel’s website. The highlight will last 40-45 minutes, including driver statements and the podium ceremony.

Formula 1 broadcasts on the F1 TV internet service in 2026

On F1 TV, you can watch live broadcasts of the Formula 1, Formula 2, Formula 3, Porsche Supercup, and F1 Academy series. By purchasing any package, you also have access to extensive Live Timing (via another app or browser). For Formula 1, an extensive broadcast is produced for each session: the main television feed, as well as access to the camera feed on every car (22 separate feeds), a data feed, and a track map. In total, 26 different streams are available for each F1 broadcast. F1 TV also has an extensive archive from the last 45 years (all current broadcasts remain in it permanently), many documentaries, and programs about F1.

In 2026, three packages with different content are available on the F1 TV service: F1 TV Access, F1 TV Pro, and F1 TV Premium. A detailed comparison of the content between them can be read in a separate article here. In short, the cheapest F1 TV Access package is intended for people who only need access to live timing and replays and do not want to watch anything live on the service, e.g., because they watch F1 in Polish on Eleven Sports. The middle F1 TV Pro package is aimed at people who want to watch live broadcasts of F1 and support series on the service, as well as other available materials. The most expensive F1 TV Premium package is aimed at people who want to watch live broadcasts on the service (like Pro) but have the appropriate equipment to use 4K quality with HDR. The most expensive package is also aimed at people who are thinking about sharing account access, as it allows using broadcasts on six devices simultaneously.

Those more interested in this service are encouraged to read the previous article Technical parameters of F1 TV Pro in 2026, where I discussed issues such as image quality, apps, and account sharing in detail.

Access to the F1 TV service can be purchased in a web browser or in the app on Android and iOS. When buying in Poland in a browser, you pay in Euro, and in the app in Polish Zloty. When buying in a browser, you must use a payment card. When buying in the app, you can use Google Pay or Apple Pay. Due to differences in exchange rates, it is currently slightly more profitable to buy in Euro, but the difference is small.

Prices for F1 TV Access, F1 TV Pro, and F1 TV Premium packages have not changed in 2026.
