Agreed.
Best thing I did was cancel my complete Sky contract at the start of the year.
I got the VPN (Nord) on a two year deal and then subscribed to F1TV pro for less a tenner a month I think.
I think it was actually something like £60-70 for the year when I paid through google play store. Incredible value.Best thing I did was cancel my complete Sky contract at the start of the year.

And yes, sacking off Sky felt good when I did that too

what's the F1TV commentary like?
You can choose the Sky commentary, Brundle, Croft etc, exactly as you hear on the Sky broadcast.. Or you instead listen to F1's own English feed, which is far less OTT and more focussed on the technical nature of the sport and events on track.TheDeuce said:

interesting.yes the commentators are often annoying, but I do value the ex-driver viewpoints of Brundle/Coultard/Palmer.
Jolyon Palmer in the ear and the F1 visual feed could be a good balance.

The answer you're all looking for is to view every session live, in full and instant repeat on F1TV pro.

...and it won't be long before F1TV will be renewing its contract for an English language TV production company to supply that part of its feed.
Two contenders......
Sky (who are making it work because they have exclusive live rights in UK....ooops)

Anyone know what’s going on, I sat down at 18:30 to watch qualifying on 4+1, but all I see is some property programme. Planner says it should on now.
18:30 - 20:00 on CHANNEL 4... watching it now.( Programme announcer did mention about some incorrect listings though).

Christian Horner on Lewis Hamilton... “an eight times World Champion”.
( And nobody corrected him)
Sorry, but you misunderstood. ( And nobody corrected him)
It wasn't in relation to Lewis, they were discussing the Mercedes team, who are indeed eight times World Champions as they won the constructors last year.
