MUMBAI: UK's Kangaroo Media Inc. and Formula One Management Limited have entered into a six-year licence agreement to provide fans at all Formula One events with access to live race video, audio and data on Kangaroo Media's Kangaroo TV hand-held device.

Fans can follow their favourite drivers around the track on the Kangaroo TV screen, receive race telemetry and timing data, and listen to live driver and team communications, all from a device in the palm of their hands, states an official release.

The Kangaroo TV service for Formula One is expected to debut on a limited basis at the 2006 U.S. Grand Prix, which will be held on 2 July at the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
