Completely agree. I do wish Sky would stop doing this and ruining it for people who want to watch things later

Agree! Happened to me today. I have sky stream and to get to the race to watch it on catch up, there was already a banner showing Lando as the champion! Totally spoilt it. It would have been only about an hour after the race would have finished as well. Totally wrong and unfair Sky. Stop!!

Re: Come on Sky… F1 results right on the homepage?

Could not agree more. 

I avoided it all day. And was met with this, anyone at Sky who thinks this is a good idea needs to be gone. 

even when I tried to watch the race it continuously said there was a technical error and have still not been able to play it.

And yet you both felt compelled to do exactly the same thing and name the winner on a public forum!

I got this response via email today:

Not very useful reply, sure keep viewers informed... via sky sports news not via the EPG. Cancelled Sky Sports and will get my sports from other methods.
