    Just wondering if any Kodi/XBMC users happen to know where to watch live or streaming F1 coverage? I'm having a hard time finding it and the NBC sports app isn't reliable.

    I assume you have the Navi-X addon (or equivilent), so you can perform a search within that app for the F1 streams, but those would mostly be live feeds; haven't found any on-demand sources for the races. Even when I have tried to watch them live via a stream, you get such a range of quality and random drops... makes for a frustrating viewing experience.
    I'm a huge XBMC fan and user, but I still just resort to downloading GPs via torrents.

    Damn, I was hoping there was a better way. I get the sky sports torrent. It's way better than NBCSN. Yeah I have Navi X, I was hoping Phoenix or something would have an option. Thanks for the reply

    Hey there! Could you find any working channel yet? I just can watch it on my computer connected to my TV. I watch it from BBC using Hola Proxy. BBC doesn't broadcast the whole season though. :-/

    Please, let me know if you have any other sources please. Thanks!

    You're going to need another source for 2016 as the BBC have abandoned F1 on TV as part of their cost cutting measures.

    Channel 4 in the UK have taken over the F1 coverage in the UK from 2016 and will broadcast half of the seasons races live, whilst the other half of the races will be shown as a delayed highlights programme (this is exactly the same situation as the BBC used to broadcast the races - The BBC did broadcast the entire season, but only half of the races were live).

    If you want to get all of the races live from a UK broadcaster then you'll need to find a way to get the SKY TV F1 coverage.

    Excellent, thanks.

    Last year I used Acestream (an exact copy of VLC media player, but allows you to put in ''Hash'' codes)...type in the hash code and had had sky live stream, can pause and rewind too.

    Pak Hind seems a bit easier on Kodi I guess, will try that out!
