Stream F1 live: how to watch the United States Grand Prix 2018 online from anywhere

Pole position. 67 points to the good. And his closes rival four places back on the grid. Today is looking very much like the day that Lewis Hamilton will lift his fifth F1 World Championship - only the third man in history to do so. And we'll tell you how to stream F1 live - even for FREE in the UK and some other regions - wherever you are in the world.

We won't go through all the possible permutations here, but it's now looking like a probability that tonight will see an effective premature end to the 2018 F1 season in the United States - just like 2015 all over again. Basically if Hamilton wins and Sebastian Vettel only manages third, it's a done deal. In fact, any result that ends up with Hamilton grabbing an eight point advantage over his bitter rival means that Hamilton will officially retain his crown.

And the omens are pretty good for the Brit. He's won five of the six United States Grand Prix previously held at the Circuit of Americas, so he knows how to hold up his end of the bargain in Texas. The other person to win here since 2012? That man Vettel, of course.

It's a tall order at the United States Grand Prix for Vettel to claw back the championship, but thankfully watching it is super straightforward for you and on pretty much any device. And the best thing about it...it's possible to do so absolutely free of charge. Read on to find out how to stream F1 live.
