Formula 1: Canadian Grand Prix not being broadcast on ESPN

Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is the ninth of a record-breaking 24 races on the 2024 Formula 1 schedule, making it the first race beyond the one-third mark of the season.

This 70-lap race around the 14-turn, 2.71-mile (4.361-kilometer) road course on Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal, Quebec, Canada is set to become the fourth consecutive race not broadcast on ESPN in the United States.

The Canadian Grand Prix is set to be shown live on ABC, making it the third of five races on ABC's portion of the 2024 schedule. The first two were the Miami Grand Prix at Miami International Autodrome in early May as well as the season's most recent race, the Monaco Grand Prix at Circuit de Monaco.
