Belgian Grand Prix live stream: how to watch F1 online from anywhere

Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton going head to herd at turn 1 on an F1 live stream

Belgian Grand Prix live stream

Every session of the 2023 Belgian Grand Prix is available to watch for free on Servus TV in Austria, and RTBF in Belgium. Use a VPN to watch your local stream from anywhere. A complete breakdown of free Belgian GP live streams is listed below.

Belgian GP: race preview

Hungary saw yet another weekend of domination for Max Verstappen, and despite losing out on pole to Lewis Hamilton, the Flying Dutchman took the lead by turn 1 and said goodbye to the pack. 

It looks unlikely that any driver will take points away from the Red Bull ace this season, but the infamously changeable weather at Spa will give the mid-pack as good a chance as any. Lando Norris will certainly be Francorchamping at the bit to stretch the legs of his newly competitive McLaren, and veterans Hamilton and Alonso will no doubt be praying for a downpour to exhibit their experience.

Speaking of Lando Norris, the Brit has claimed that McLaren will take a win by the end of the season. With some serendipity (or a crash), McLaren look like the team best-placed to do so. Could it happen in Belgium?

The Belgian Grand Prix also sees the third of six F1 Sprint weekends, in which Saturday is converted into a mini race weekend all of its own. Drivers set laps in the Sprint Shootout to qualify in the morning, and battle it out in a 100km flat-out blast in the afternoon – the winner of which heads up the grid on Sunday.

Read on for how to watch a Belgian Grand Prix live stream from start to finish and from anywhere in the world, including ways to watch an F1 live stream for FREE.

Watch a free Belgian Grand Prix live stream

There are a number of ways to watch the Belgian Grand Prix for free this weekend. Like every other weekend, in Austria all the races are shared between free-to-air broadcasters Servus TV and ORF (this weekend it's Servus). Home fans can also watch every moment of the action for free on RTBF in Belgium. Take a look and find out what's available where you are:

If you're out of the country you'll need to use a VPN to access your preferred Belgian Grand Prix free live stream, as explained below. We rate ExpressVPN as the best provider out there, as it has a great track record for unblocking geo-restricted streams.


How to watch the Belgian Grand Prix live stream from outside your country

If you're abroad for this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix, you'll likely find you're unable to access your usual Formula 1 coverage like you would at home. This isn't necessarily cause for alarm, but rather the result of geo-blocking – best understood as digital borders that restrict certain services and content to certain parts of the world.

Fortunately, there's a convenient way around this in the form of a VPN. This is a nifty bit of software that lets you whizz around these digital borders, thereby allowing you to globe trot and still access your preferred F1 live stream. It's a completely legal workaround, very affordable, and super easy to use – allow us to explain more.
