The second half of the F1 season gets underway this weekend, July 25-27, with the Belgian Grand Prix and McLaren driver Lando Norris will be chasing a third straight victory after wins at Silverstone and the Red Bull Ring.
The British driver now trails teammate and title rival Oscar Piastri by just 12 points in the driver standings and the momentum appears to be in his favor after securing consecutive wins for the first time in his F1 career.
Another major talking point in Spa this weekend will be how Red Bull Racing perform without Christian Horner. The team principal was surprisingly sacked and replaced by Laurent Mekies who will hope to mark the start of a new era with a successful race for Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda.
With a sprint race taking place on Saturday, there will be plenty of points up for grabs across the weekend, so you won’t want to miss any of the action. Here’s how to watch the Belgian Grand Prix online from anywhere and potentially for FREE.

How to watch Belgian Grand Prix from anywhere
Most F1 live streams are location-sensitive. So, you won’t be able to access your home service when travelling abroad. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a small but powerful app that lets you select your preferred location and thus unblock any F1 live stream – including the free streams in Austria, Luxembourg and Belgium if you’re a resident there.
A VPN will allow you relocate your device back to your home country. NordVPN is our favorite VPN and you can make use of it to watch the F1 season while you’re away from home.

Protecting your online security and strengthening your online privacy when abroad. We do not support or condone the illegal or malicious use of VPN services.
