Motorsports Has a Growing TV Accessibility Problem in the U.S.

Formula 1’s move to Apple is a recent example of a rising lack of accessibility.

Formula 1 will move its United States broadcasts from ESPN to Apple TV in 2026, creating a huge barrier to viewing F1 races for many American viewers.

Viewers will have to purchase the Apple TV app to watch all 24 races next season, instead of easily watching them on cable television.

This change may alienate a portion of its fanbase who is either unable or unwilling to move to streaming with the series.

This creates a huge barrier to viewing F1 races for many American viewers.

Author's summary: Motorsports faces a growing TV accessibility issue.
