The 2025 season is set to return to the broadcaster that has broadcast the sport for 40 years, until 2020
While the 2024 season is still ongoing, the Formula 1 already forwards the agreement for 2025 broadcasts in Brazil. After four years of collaboration with bandthe mode involves returning to Globebroadcaster that broadcast the races for 40 years, until 2020.
The deal has not yet been closed, but we already have an idea of what the basis of the agreement will be. Freedom Mediaowner of the commercial rights to F-1, must withdraw from Band. The broadcaster must pay amounts to the company and does not see an optimistic plan to maintain the business.
Both Band and Globo avoid speaking officially about the negotiations with Liberty Media and the Formula 1 broadcasting rights.
How long did Globo show Formula 1?
The mode was broadcast on Globo between 1981 and 2020. The following year, F-1 migrated to Band. After the first season broadcast under a new contract, Band had renewed its partnership until 2025.
When will Globo broadcast Formula 1 again?
The agreement between Liberty Media and Globo should seal the broadcasts starting in 2025. The remaining races of the current season will continue on Band. The risk of making the break official before the end of the season would be that there would be no space to broadcast the remaining races of 2024.
How many Formula 1 races will be broadcast on Globo?
Globo’s coverage will no longer be as intense as it once was. In the past, only the Grand Prix that coincided with football matches were excluded from the open channel. Now, half of the 24 GPs must be shown, including the Brazilian stage, held at the Autódromo de Interlagos.
Will Formula 1 training and qualifying be broadcast on Globo?
Canals Globo will broadcast the remaining stages of the season, free training and qualifying matches on closed TV. The format is the same as the one adopted in the current agreement, in which the BandSports channel broadcasts these controversies and the matches are broadcast on open TV.
Who will be the narrators of Formula 1 on Globo?
The last season broadcast on Globo was 2020, when Galvão Bueno was absent from the broadcast due to the covid-19 pandemic. He was the main name in the almost 40 years of partnership between the Rio broadcaster and Formula 1. This time, Luis Roberto and Everaldo Marques should host the broadcasts.
Will Formula 1 have a Brazilian driver in 2025?
Part of Globo’s interest in Formula 1 is due to the proximity of Gabriel Bortoleto’s agreement to become the team’s lead driver. Audiwhich has signed a partnership with Sauberstarting next season.
Bortoleto, 19, competes directly with the Finnish expert Valtteri Bottasvice world champion in the 2019 and 2020 seasons, when he drove for Mercedes. Bottas is one of the current drivers of Kick Sauber, but has a contract only until the end of this season. The Chinese Guanyu Zhou is experiencing the same situation in the team, but is further away from the renewal, due to lack of experience and results.
In recent weeks Bortoleto has become the favourite in this dispute thanks to the good performances shown in his first season in Formula 2, the main category for access to F-1.
