Max Verstappen has currently gone four races without a win and hopes that the familiar home port of Zandvoort can be an advantage for the drivers who line up for the Dutch GP today.

Verstappen has won the last three Dutch Grands Prix, but McLaren’s recent drought has allowed him to wrest the lead in the constructors’ championship from Red Bull.

Lewis Hamilton topped the podium at last weekend’s Belgian GP after team-mate George Russell was disqualified after the race for driving a car that was too light. Verstappen’s fourth place last time out means he goes into Sunday’s race with a 78-point lead over McLaren’s Lando Norris in the drivers’ championship with 10 races remaining.

The feature race, which takes place on Sunday 25 August at 14:55 CET local time, 13:55 BST in the UK, 08:55 ET / 05:55 PT in the US and Canada, and 22:55 AEST in Australia, will be held at Circuit Zandvoort in the Netherlands. The race will be broadcast in the US on ESPN and ESPN+.

The entire race weekend, including practice sessions and qualifying, will be broadcast in the US on ESPN’s family of TV and streaming networks. Those wanting to follow along will need access to the ABC and ESPN news channels on cable or live TV streaming services, or the ESPN Plus streaming service. We’ve put together everything you need to know to stream today’s race and all the other F1 races this season.

How to watch F1 online from anywhere with a VPN

If you find yourself unable to watch Formula 1 action locally, you may need another way to watch the races. In that case, a VPN may come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speed on race day by encrypting your traffic. It’s also a good idea if you’re traveling and connected to a Wi-Fi network and want to add an extra layer of privacy to your devices and login details.

A VPN allows you to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet, or laptop to access the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice ExpressVPN, make it very easy to do this.

It’s legal to use a VPN to watch or stream sports in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK, and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming from. You’ll want to make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly enforced blackout restrictions.

Quick Tips for Streaming the Bundesliga Using a VPN

• Depending on four variables (your internet service provider, browser, video streaming provider, and VPN), your experiences and success streaming Bundesliga matches can vary.
• If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try the ‘Search by city or country’ option.
• If you’re having issues with gameplay after enabling your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log in to your streaming service subscription account and make sure that the address registered to the account is one in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address stored with your account. Second, some smart TVs, like Roku, don’t have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that every device on the Wi-Fi network will now appear in the correct viewing location.
• All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main sites for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after installing a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to the email address stored for your smart TV. This is where a VPN on your router also helps, as both devices appear to be in the correct location.
• And remember that browsers can often reveal your location, despite using a VPN. So make sure you use a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We usually recommend Brave.
