Just got an email notifying me that you can no longer subscribe to F1TV Pro in France. Existing subscriptions will continue until users cancel them.

I guess Canal+ negotiated a new exclusive deal like Sky did in the UK…

      Is that working for you still? I had to physically leave my country so I could start my subscription via the Android app because it wouldn’t work on VPN and the website registration requires a billing address in that country.

      For legal reasons this is a joke

      I heard they cracked down on those of us that “live” in India / turkey and pay for our subscriptions there also…

    The day this happens in the US is the day I stop watching, as I did when it mostly moved to Sky when I lived in the UK.

    Got that as well.

    They will apparently honor the current subscription but are very vague on the terms so I don’t expect it to last.

    Fuck Canal+

    Goddammit. If I can’t renew in a April next year, I’m moving to WEC. At least l’équipe doesn’t have the same pull.
