As part of its live coverage of all 21 race weekends from across the globe, Sky Sports F1 will show exclusive coverage of the first grand prix of the season, as Britains four-time world champion Lewis Hamilton begins his title defence in Australia.
Two new grands prix for 2018 will also be shown exclusively live. Returning to the F1 calendar for the first time in nearly thirty years, Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet will host the French Grand Prix in June, while the German Grand Prix from Hockenheim makes its comeback after a one-year absence.

Each season we look to find new ways to improve the coverage and entertain our viewers and this year will be no different.
Sky Sports in depth coverage will include analysis from a world class line up, headlined by Martin Brundle and former world champion Damon Hill, alongside Johnny Herbert, Paul di Resta and Anthony Davidson. Plus the return of F1 Report, Teds Notebook, and much more.
