DAZN secures Formula 1 rights in Portugal

DAZN will show Formula 1 to its subscribers in Portugal for at least three seasons from 2025.

The package includes all sessions from each round and also includes broadcasts of the feeder championships, Formula 2 and Formula 3, F1 Academy and Porsche SuperCup.

Jorge Pavão de Sousa, general director of DAZN Portugal, said: “We want to continue the growth of motorsport in Portugal and, above all, continue to value our product for sports fans. The upcoming Formula 1 seasons promise to bring many new features that will have an impact on the competition. Adding the world’s biggest motorsport competition to the best football in Europe is another important step for DAZN to be the reference in sports entertainment with the best content portfolio in Portugal”.

DAZN’s Portuguese distribution is thanks in part to its acquisition of Eleven Sports, which screened Formula 1 between 2019 and 2021.
