Watching F1 in Canada (Ontario) 2018

Post

Sup Guys.
So we are moving to Burlington Ontario in a months time.
I was wondering, should I just go the Internet route for TV (as I already have Netflix, Plex and Showmax accounts), or get a normal TV package?
I am a bit anal when it comes to F1, so I want to see every minute of each practice, quali and race.
Is there an app/channel/package that would allow for this in Canada.
I want to basically know from locals what my options are.

Regards
G

Really nobody?

Does one have to get a TV service that runs TSN? Or can one get ESPN apps on things like apple tv etc to watch F1? Can I subscribe to just ESPN for sports and get the F1 stuff as well?

Any suggestions from Canadians?

Halifax NS here. If you get a cable package which includes TSN, you will have access to pretty much everything that’s on SKY. Practice sessions, qualifying, drivers parade, pre-race show, race, post race show. It’s all SKY feed.

I grew up in Burlington, nice little town, don't miss the Sound of Music festival or the Ribfest

The cable supplier in Burlington is Cogeco Cable, https://www.cogeco.ca/en/
that's who I use and I can watch F1 on TSN (SKY) or the American feed from Fox? NBC? or whoever is showing it this year you'll be able to get

Thanks man.
Cogeco seems a bit expensive compared to Coextro
