I'm here in Spain for a week and want to watch formula one from Italy. 
I have been a Sky customer in the UK for over 25+ years. 
it pains me that I can't watch my F1!!

I believe Brexit was behind EU export restrictions.

I am just another Sky customer and my views are my own even if you don't like the answers

Unfortunately I believe this is one of the consequences of Brexit  - when we were part of the EU I think we could use SKY Go in any EU country

@Steve+C+Lewis as both @nigea99 @PandJ2020 have stated due to brexit you cannot now ewatch Sky go in EU contries your best option is to try and find a bar in spain that is showing it through official Spanish TV the only problem is that the commentary will most likely be in Spanish as well

If you're a resident in the UK, you cannot use streaming services outside of the UK due to licensing restrictions and for the UK not being part of the EU. 

However, if you're a resident in Ireland, you can watch Sky Go or Discovery+ or any paid streaming service in Italy or any EU/EEA country, due to the EU's portability regulation for paid streaming services..

Can I suggest you enjoy some lovely Spanish food, maybe have a siesta or a stroll along the beach instead? You're on holiday. Do something different. Forget about some rich blokes and their noisy cars for a week.
