In reply to SjaakFoo. At least Formula E have a useful 'Ways to Watch' page on their website which informs everyone all the options they have, and when sessions are broadcast, specific to the individual country they're watching from. That's a big step up from most other categories.

Decent calendar. I'd like to see more races happening in the F1 off season - seems a shame that Feb only has one race.

Unfortunately I won’t see a single race this year, because I no longer have a TV connection from the one ISP that has this on their pay channel. It’s still boneheaded to have a fledgling racing series with low viewership stuck on pay-channels instead of first building a proper audience… But that’s another discussion entirely to the article.

The second thing holding FE back is the street and parking lot tracks, which are quite uninspired. There’s just nothing exciting about seeing cars race between some iron fences. Just going to Mexico on a proper track makes such a huge difference in viewing experience. So I’m glad that Rome got replaced by a circuit, and I hope that future calendars will be mostly, if not all, circuits.

But again, I won’t be able to see more than some YouTube highlight's.
