Pretty steep increase to be able to watch live races. Any alternatives?

It’s £20 in the UK… for no live races. Sky has exclusive rights in the UK sadly. I’ll stick to sailing the high seas.

NowTV is available and you can (could?) Get credit with them from Tesco clubcard with a decent multiplyer.

Horrible website/service though

I don’t like Sky getting a penny from me. I have no idea how they’re allowed to have such a monopoly for sport on TV in the UK.

They don’t, it’s a partial dualopoly between them and BT Sports with the BBC and ITV occasionally getting in on the action.

Agree with the sky hate though.

Fellow islander in Japan here. I’ll stick to sailing the pacific ocean.

I hope it’s still £20. I paid for it a few years ago for the archive content. Watched the early 80s seasons. I’ve been meaning to get it again to catch up with the rest.
