Upcoming sky sports UHD broadcasts

Obviously everything on main event is going to be in UHD but is there anywhere that shows what the upcoming broadcasts in UHD are that are only available on the Red Button? I guess like an equivalent to the programme guide

There used to be a specific 'rail' with a title called something like "Even better in UHD" but as it was populated different to other rails and some other reasons it was withdrawn.

 

Probably one of the best ways is to go to

Sport - Featured - Live Sport this week and just scroll through the tiles which will be a mixture of HD & UHD - although it is not guaranteed to be populated with all the upcoming UHD

 

You also need to be that sometimes the UHD versions don't appear until just a few days before the event - for example last year F1 race shows in UHD often wouldn't show until around mid week

I often say "UHD" in to mic then scroll down to sports and then scroll left to see all the UHD events coming up (though a lot of the main event ones will be upscaled uhd)

 

Or you could say "UHD sports"

It really needs to be in the EPG like they now have for Sky Sports UHD on VirginMedia.

SkyQ Silver bundle (V2 2TB with UHD/HDR + two minis) in Sky region #71 (Oxford) using VirginMedia Gig1 Fibre (1.2Gbps/100Mbps).
