What is coming up on F1 Channel in April 2026?

In April 2026, F1 Network (and F1 TV) is navigating an unprecedented five-week "Spring Break" following the mid-March cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix due to regional instability. The month’s schedule is headlined by exhaustive technical analysis and "Season So Far" retrospectives, focusing on the meteoric rise of Mercedes rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli, who leads the standings after dominant back-to-back victories in China and Japan. Viewers can stay engaged with exclusive access to the off-track ventures of the grid’s stars, including Max Verstappen’s Nürburgring 24-hour qualifying sessions and Lance Stroll’s GT World Challenge debut at Paul Ricard. Meanwhile, the network is rolling out deep-dive documentaries like F1 Icons: The Schumacher Years and fresh episodes of Tech Talk, which break down the final aerodynamic refinements teams are bringing to the next live event. Rounding out the month is the high-stakes "Road to Miami" programming block, providing the definitive preview for the Miami Grand Prix (May 1–3), the season's first Sprint weekend, as the paddock prepares to return to action at the Hard Rock Stadium complex.

Fubo could be down due to a number of reasons, such as internet connectivity, app problems or even a service outage.

Check the Wi-Fi or home broadband you're connected to to see if there's an issue there. You can try updating or reinstalling the app, as well as checking there isn't an electrical outage in the area by testing other equipment or, specifically, other devices or apps that connect to the same internet.

There's a good chance your internet speed isn't fast enough, especially if you are experiencing buffering while streaming.

Check there's nothing blocking or interfering with the internet hub or router, so the signal isn't being disrupted.

Optionally, you can lower the picture quality if you are experiencing buffering, which may help it to run smoother.

This could be because the service is geo-restricted, meaning you cannot use it outside of the United States or area you are trying to access specific local channels.

Using a VPN is a way to circumvent the issue, as Fubo is generally region and country specific.
