Formula 1 summaries and qualifications will be shown on SBS9, which will continue as Viaplay TV from April 5. You still have to pay for Viaplay for the live races.
Viaplay TV starts with the second free practice for the Japanese GP. Other sports also find their way to the television channel, with English and German darts and football matches. Viaplay TV will also broadcast films and series from Talpa.
