In these days of increasingly neglected and cancelled official apps we have good news for F1 fans on Microsoft platforms.

Formula 1 Digital Media Limited has updated their official Formula 1 app for the 2017 season for both Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile.

The UWP app lets users follow their favourite teams and drivers with news, video and live race features.
