Apple and Netflix are teaming up for select Formula 1 programming, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Programming Eddie Cue said in a conference call with reporters.
The Hollywood Reporter says the deal will include Netflix simulcasting the F1 Canadian Grand Prix May 22-24 (it will also be on Apple TV, of course), and with Apple TV getting streaming rights to season eight of Drive to Survive alongside Netflix. “Drive to Survive” will land on Apple TV at midnight tonight, the same day it debuts on Netflix.
“Netflix, I think, has played a pivotal role in growing F1 since the launch of Drive to Survive, and we’re thrilled to make F1 content more broadly available to new and existing u.s. fans on both Netflix and Apple TV,” Cue said.
