Netflix and Apple TV+ established a landmark content partnership centered on Formula 1.
Both platforms will globally launch the eighth season of Formula 1: Drive to Survive on February 27, 2026. This marks the first simultaneous release of a major series by two competing streaming services.
Apple TV+ secured exclusive US broadcasting rights for the 2026 Formula 1 season. Netflix will stream the Apple TV+ live broadcast of the Canadian Grand Prix to its US subscribers later that year.
The collaboration integrates documentary storytelling with live event coverage to increase audience engagement. Formula 1 intends to expand its US viewership by leveraging the combined subscriber bases of both streaming giants.
