Channel 4 F1 highlights today: How to watch the 2026 Italian Grand Prix FREE in the UK

Lewis Hamilton bids to claim an iconic Italian Grand Prix victory for Ferrari later today (Sunday September 6), and there is only one way to watch the action for free in the UK.

The 41-year-old British megastar has enjoyed a real renaissance in his second season with Italy's iconic team, and a win this weekend is crucial to his hopes of a record eighth world title this season.

Lewis trails young Italian prodigy Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) by 59 points heading into the weekend, but he has a golden opportunity to close the gap. Antonelli has taken a grid penalty and start Sunday's race from P20 while Lewis starts from P4.

It should be a thrilling weekend at the 'Temple of Speed' as Hamilton looks to deliver a special moment for the adoring tifosi.
