1080p to 4k
If you're using older 3rdparty clients like Race Control or f1viewer, then the stream has double the bitrate than with /r/F1MultiViewer or the official app (both show the video bitrate through debug menu). You can also easily verify this for archived races by downloading the stream segments with your preferred browser and decrypting the non widevine protected video with the key from the m8u3 file.

Race control - why races won't load sometimes?
Race Control is one of the previously popular 3rdparty clients for f1tv, but like f1viewer, they rely on external players that don't support streaming with widevine DRM.

Ask /r/formula1 Anything - Daily Discussion - 9 October 2022
This ia one of the reasons many people on /r/F1TV suggest /r/F1MultiViewer and previously other 3rdparty viewers like Race Control and F1Viewer, before they introduced DRM to the live streams this year in April.

So I've bought F1 TV Pro and I'm from the UK and I have really strong internet connection. But the stream quality is poor and buffers a lot when in a higher quality. Is that down to the VPN maybe and need a stronger paid one?
There is a github link for it.
When you download via git you get the source code - go to the releases section of the page to get a normal installer or an zip file with the executable.

F1TV app micro stutter
This started happening on Android when they enabled DRM on the streams. Assuming you use a device with Android 12 or later, you can just use Race Control TV to fix the issue. With Android 11 or earlier, Race Control TV also stutters due to this issue, which can be fixed by a custom build of the the app and force-enabling the fix mentioned in the issue.
