New Miami F1 start time

sl69 — Sun, 03 May 2026 08:16:00 GMT

Hi, now the Miami start time has been moved to 6pm UK time when will the epg be updated? If the pre show starts at 4pm and I set to record what is currently at 4pm (live GTWC Europe). Will this continue to record and be the F1 or will the record cancel as it's not that programme? On the old sky+ there was an option to manually record from X time but not with sky q....

Hi @sl69 I doubt if you will get an answer quick enough, but you could try viewer relations by emailing viewerR@sky.uk. Personally I know the race is at 18:00 (UK time) so happy to monitor it myself.

Cheers, yeah thought it might be a long shot but will monitor skygo just in case they update that

I have managed to make contact via Social Media & the teams are aware and say the schedule should be updated in time

Hi @sl69 The Sky Q equivalent (rarely needed) is to record programmes before and after an event to cover your time range. You can't cater for the BBC continuing on a different channel without notice.

~~Strange - my scheduled recording is still showing as linked~~

edit - my recordings do not appear to have been rescheduled although the EPG has changed

Actually now confused as the EPG is showing as starting at 4PM and set to record (& linked) but the 'Scheduled' recordings still show at 7pm

Probably will record at 4pm & just a small gremlin but thought I would mention

Looks like the epg on skygo has changed I had deleted the original recording and now re done with the new times. Thanks all

Everything sorted itself out, EPG changed and series links all reapplied all by themselves..

My F1 UHD link did not return on my SkyQ.

Stange - fortunately everything recorded & linked OK for me (both HD & UHD)

Just sat down to watch the race and found my sky box hasn't recorded anything from this weekend at all and the only version available on catchup is on SD and therefore pointless.

Pretty annoying that the series link didn't work.
