F1 Series Link

[F1FanIreland]

OMG! I cannot believe that FP1 and most of FP2 has not recorded! 😡😡😡 I've just arrived home to watch the sessions and neither is there!

SKY... what are you doing? You can't just remove a series link without warning. What is happening?

[OnlyPaySkyForF1]

Yep, me too! 

Why is this weekends coverage not linked!?

Lucky I caught this before quali and the race. Super annoying I have to go and find each of the progs and choose to record each one.

Feel for those who have yet to discover Sky broke their series link and will miss this. 😞

Thanks for the heads up. I too notice that the next series linked program is the drivers press conference from San Paulo.

[AlexB+007]

Yes. The f1 hasn't recorded for me so far this weekend. Nothing in schedule, I have set up recordings but I can't series link. 

sky, why? 

[Alvin66]

I've just emailed them.

[AlexB+007]

Thanks Alvin.

I totally agree with you 👍 I bet they wouldn't do that with poxy football which I hate with vengeance ( but I suppose cause we are a minority and not classed as being normal as we don't like football and just enjoy F1 we don't count )

Football has never had series links.

I found this out during FP1. missed the driver press conference and can't find it anywhere. Nice one Sky. 😳

So like everyone else my series link didn't work, missed FP1, so set it up to record when it was scheduled at 8am today, play back the recording now to find it wasn't broadcast!  Just 90 minutes of random driver activities they show as part of the pre-race show normally.

Any assurance the 1.45pm broadcast will actually have FP1 or not?!

I'm using series record for Sky's Premier League games. Have done for years 👍

it's not broken for this weekend, unlike the F1 coverage.

Hi, I have a new issue this week with the F1 coverage of the Mexican GP.

It appears the series link which I had applied has been removed, this has resulted in a failure to record the practise sessions yesterday.

I've set up the recording for today practis and qualifying manually as it's not accepting a series link....is this a fault or a new idea?

Thanks in advance.

It's not just the F1 HD and UHD with no series link. All of Sky Sports channels are affected. Only "Record Once" option is available.

Seems to be a one off fault for this weekend only.

[AlexB+007]

I've sent a similar message. 

[Manx+Tigers]

This is a real issue and I have always relied on series link for F1.  Why isn't there any comment from Sky explaining what is going on or why there has been an issue this weekend?
