FanCode has renewed its broadcast partnership with Formula 1 through a new three-year agreement which runs until the end of the 2028 season. The partnership kicked off in 2024. 

As part of the expanded scope of the partnership, users will also be able to subscribe to F1 TV Pro and F1 TV Premium directly via FanCode. This is in addition to coverage of all race weekends each season, including every practice, qualifying, and race sessions (including Sprints).

The platform will also hold broadcast rights across Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, however, F1 TV Pro and F1 TV Premium will still be sold directly by Formula 1 in these markets.

The 2026 season is scheduled to start on 5 March in Melbourne with the Australian Grand Prix. 

Yannick Colaco, co-founder, FanCode, said, “We are delighted to renew our partnership with Formula 1 for three more years. This expanded deal firmly establishes FanCode as the home of all things F1 in India, and we’re excited to keep serving one of the country’s most passionate and fastest-growing sports communities. Fans have shown tremendous trust in our platform, and we will continue to deliver on their expectations, whether through livestreams, enhanced features or curated F1 community experiences.”

Ian Holmes, chief media rights and broadcasting officer, Formula 1, said, “We are delighted to be beginning our next chapter with FanCode after a successful start to our partnership in 2024. FanCode has elevated our broadcast for our passionate Indian audience to ensure they are able to feel the adrenaline and excitement of a race weekend from the comfort of their homes. We look forward to continuing working closely with FanCode and finding new, innovative ways to engage our fanbase in India and its subcontinent.”
