The 2021 Formula 1 season is now in full gear.
Starting with the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix to be held at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, in Imola, running from April 16 to 18, all the action will now stream on Shahid VIP, the premium streaming service of regional media giant MBC.
Finally, an easy and *ahem* legal way to stream.
The subscription based service and leading Arabic-language streaming platform will host the entirety of the 2021 Formula 1 season in full HD, it announced on Thursday.
A subscription to Shahid VIP will set you back AED 19.99 a month in the lowest package, which is around $5 a month.
If you’d rather watch it on TV, there’s a free option as well: Watch it on MBC Action.

The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix was only originally intended to be held as a one-off event in 2020 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, but now returns to replace the postponed Chinese Grand Prix as the second round of the 2021 season.
The race will be held in 63 laps on the 4.959-kilometre Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari.
The event will stream with no interruptions, with more live streaming events and sports content coming in the near future, according to Jakob Mejlhede Andersen, Chief Content Officer at Shahid.
