With all the fans wanting to see Hamilton in Ferrari for the first time, the declaration of its live telecast was made by Sky Italia. But, unfortunately, it was not for everyone.
On Tuesday, several social media outlets reported Sky Italia F1’s YouTube channel will livestream the test in Fiorano. However, later on, it was discovered that the stream was geo-blocked by the channel. Thus, only fans in Italy are allowed to watch the programme.
