F1 launch FREE platform with 'hardcore fan' focus

F1 has launched a new free-to-use platform to "bring fans closer to the drama and excitement" ahead of the new season.

'F1 Unlocked' has been created with the aim of connecting with the rapidly growing fanbase.

The platform will provide fans with access to exclusive interviews and articles from "drivers past and present, famous fans and F1 experts, rare behind-the-scenes content, and unseen video footage from race weekends."

The platform already features an interview with legendary Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt, who explains his love of Lewis Hamilton and the importance of being a positive influence both off and on the track.

Fans who sign up to 'F1 Unlocked' will receive access to special online discounts and have the "chance of winning a range of prizes, from money-can’t-buy fan experiences to signed merchandise."

With live timing screens, and the ability to follow the action in greater detail, 'F1 Unlocked' is a must-have for fans.
