Today is a big day here at SB Nation.

The new SB Nation app is now live, and it is the best way for sports fans to connect with other fans, as the new app is built around the idea of community. Users can join communities for their favorite teams, and their favorite sports.

That includes Formula 1.

A year ago we made some big changes to SB Nation, including offering fewer ads and the addition of the Feed. With the app, we are giving fans even more community tools and even fewer ads. The new SB Nation app will make starting and joining conversations as simple as posting to your favorite social media platforms.

For F1 fans, you can join the F1 community, where you will find all the articles and stories from the grid, interact with fellow F1 fans, and more. We will have “game threads” for qualifying sessions and races, and so much more throughout the season.

Here are some answers to common questions about the new SB Nation app.

Why should I download the SB Nation app?

The new SB Nation app is the easiest way to interact with fellow sports fans, around specific teams and specific sports. For F1 fans, you can join the F1 community and chat with fans not just on race days or during qualifying sessions, but throughout the entire calendar year!

You will also receive notifications when someone replies to a post of your own, or recommends that post. You will see fewer ads in the SB Nation app, and you can easily navigate between your favorite communities with a simple swipe.

The app will also be the fastest way to read every post on every community.

What can I do on the SB Nation app?

Focusing on the F1 community, the choice is yours! You can make posts, share articles, start polls, or just reply to others. Explore the studio space!

Down the road, we can use the F1 community for driver interviews, Q&A sessions, and so much more.
