Formula 1 boss wants Apple TV partnership to extend ‘hopefully beyond’ 2030 expiration

Whether viewership for Formula One’s first season on Apple TV is up or down from the circuit’s last season on ESPN isn’t something Liberty Media CEO Derek Chang wants to address. But whatever data Chang is seeing is good enough for him to express supreme confidence in F1’s deal with Apple. Chang, the CEO of F1 owner Liberty Media, appeared at an Axios event ahead of last week’s Austin Grand Prix and said he hopes F1’s media rights deal with Apple will last “beyond” the 2030 expiration date.
