The 2021 Formula 1 season is now in full gear.
For fans in the Middle East, the Formula 1 action of the 2021 season 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.
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.
Today’s Portuguese Grand Prix will have Bottas in pole position, with fellow Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton right behind him.
The Portuguese Grand Prix was first held in 1951, having been held off and on since then. It was on hiatus from 1996 until 2020, revived last year and now still in full gear.
It is currently being held at the Algarve International Circuit, having previously been held at other circuits in Portugal.
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.
