How to watch the French Grand Prix: Free, online, live stream and F1 TV

Seven races, seven Mercedes wins – five of them for Lewis Hamilton. That only just begins to tell the whole story, however, with the 2019 Formula 1 season hitting top gear ahead of the French Grand Prix.

Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari were aggrieved after having victory in Canada taken away by a penalty last time out and the Scuderia are running out of time to begin cutting down Mercedes' huge advantage.

Hamilton won from pole in Le Castellet last year, and is hot favourite to do so once again after taking pole position.

Here's how you can tune in to the action.
