Apple TV+ Offers 7-Day Trial for F1 Dutch GP as Zandvoort Hosts Race 12

Summary

  • A 7-day Apple TV+ trial through Prime Video Channels lets U.S. fans stream the 2026 Dutch Grand Prix weekend free, including the Aug. 23 race.
  • Prime Video works as the access point because Apple TV+ holds exclusive U.S. Formula 1 rights; the channel renews at $12.99 a month unless canceled.
  • A 30-day Amazon Prime trial can be stacked with the Apple TV+ offer for new users, while Apple also offers separate 7-day, 1-month Apple One, and 3-month hardware-linked trials.
  • The Zandvoort weekend restarts the season after the summer break, with practice on Aug. 21, qualifying and the sprint on Aug. 22, and the main race at 9 a.m. ET on Aug. 23.
  • The Dutch GP is the 12th race of the 2026 season, with Antonelli still leading the standings despite an unpredictable first half.
