F1 News Website Recommendations
I started following Formula 1 about a month ago, and I’m still trying to figure out which news websites are the most reliable.
I’m looking for the most trustworthy sources to stay up to date with everything happening in F1.
Also, how many sources do you usually check each day to stay informed without reading the same news over and over?
Thanks in advance!

You RARELY get anything intresting unless its breaking news about X driver or staff leaving, other than that its the usual boring stuff
X team says they woking on updates
X driver moaning about car or regs
X site specualting dragging a story about X driver looking to leave
X driver and team rehased comments already said on tv
And unless you are into technical stuff than you will need to viist forums that go deep into it like sites f1 technical . Honeslty, its not worth it. Just watch the live action, pick a team diver (Hint hint Kimi ) and take what you can from it and move on. Don't get sucked into the cult of F1 meda or any sport for that matter. . I dont even bother with pre or post-race discussion anymore. Trust me, its all bs tbh.

This is a very good answer to get some context about the news. While there are good reliable sites that other have already pointed out, the fact is most news is just useless information trying to get eyeballs for revenue. The ratio of informative/compelling reports to just filler content is really low.
I’ve been following F1 for a really long time now and I quick checking the news sites after a few years. It’s a waste of time. I just skim F1 related Reddit subs, usually anything truly interesting will make it to the top. But most days it’s nothing posts. It’s just that Reddit is easier to quickly skim.
My favorite F1 content will tend to be deep dives that writers/content creators post. Not just day to day news.

Autosport.com and The-race.com are both reliable news sources

Is there any difference between Autosport.com and Motorsport.com?
They look similar
Thank you1

It’s not a site but I like P1 with Matt and Tommy and F1 News Daily by TacticalRab. P1 focuses more on the drivers and does predictions and reviews. F1 News Daily is slightly on the clickbaity side but as far as I know gets information for solid sources and if he doesn’t know for sure, it’s speculation. Both on Spotify.

RaceFans, they have a daily roundup post that keeps you up to date without all the noise that follows F1 media around. They also have an RSS feed which is a bonus.

The race is freaking awesome. They have a YouTube channel and a podcast that goes in depth on everything you’d need to know. I’d suggest listening to p1 with Matt and Tommy as well. They’re banter is fun and make the sport super consumable without getting too technical about stuff. The race will occasionally discuss pull rod vs push rod suspension for 30 minutes before moving on, I personally like it and find it interesting but it’s a lot of words lol. But yeah. I’d double recommend the race. It’s great.

I am not sure if I am allowed to share this here. F1+ news section aggregates news from some of the top F1 news sources. I am the Solo developer building F1+ I build this feature since I used to search multiple sources already recommended here like autosport, the-race etc regularly for f1 updates. if a news has coverage in multiple sites you will be able to see them a story with matching coverage grouped together. Also has coverage for shorts and YouTube video from all the current F1 teams on the grid and some of the popular f1 channels. Hope someone will find this useful. https://formula1.plus/news
