F1 UHD non live content

MiniEggs1999 — Fri, 18 Feb 2022 17:17:26 GMT

I've just pulled the pin on Sky TV as a new customer having never had it before

I've gone for the UHD pack

It is arriving early next month

Is there and NON live UHD content on the Sky F1 channel ?

By non live I mean what is broadcast betwen races in the week or the race itself on repeat

Thanks

There may be the odd documentary but I can't remember - most non race content is just HD

All the Practice sessions, Qualifying ( & Sprint Races when run) & Race Day coverage are in UHD

The race day UHD is one very long UHD programme whereas the HD coverage is broken down into Pre-race, Race & Post Race but be aware when recording to record the next HD programmes in case of (the frequent) overruns

Edit : BTW The Race highlights recaps are just HD

BTW My personal view is that whilst the UHD coverage is very good (& what I watch) it is not a massive improvement over HD which is also very good

In UHD, the "chequered flag"

segment is for some reason a separate programme. More than a couple of times, I've clicked on it by mistake and immediately spoilt the whole race for myself.
