Does Apple offer Sky Sports F1 broadcast replays?

Is there a replay option for the Sky Sports F1 broadcast? I already cannot stand the commentary on the F1 TV broadcast, but sometimes I cannot watch every race, practice, quali, etc. live. But I cannot find links to replays of the Sky Sports Broadcast (just replay links for the F1 TV broadcast which as stated previously, I don't like the commentators, I miss the Sky Sports crew Crofty, Brundle, Ted, et al). ESPN always had the replays available on demand. Will apple be doing the same?

  1. Open the F1 page in the Apple TV app.
  2. Select the race weekend (for example “Australian Grand Prix”).
  3. Scroll down past the normal replay.
  4. Look for a separate item like: “[Session] — Sky Sports Broadcast”


Play that replay instead. That stream includes the Sky Sports presenters and commentary (Crofty, Brundle, etc.), not the F1TV commentators.

I do not see this option anywhere. I only see them listed as the upcoming broadcast. I’ve searched for Sky replays everywhere. This has ruined everything I watch.

The Apple broadcast is completely unwatchable. I did not know they were not going to have Sky Sports. This is awful. I don’t care about any of the added Apple features. I want to watch what I had with Brundle, Ted and the rest. I watch every week, all weekend including Ted’s Notebook. So now I can’t watch anything. It’s not even fun to watch. I had to turn it off. Formula 1 is what I have been waiting for since last season.

It's looking like this is not an Apple TV issue but a Sky Sports F1 issue! I found this tread on the Sky Stream community forums that shows that Sky has had an issue with the replays not being available for a while now. Sometimes they're there and sometimes not!


2026 Sky F1 catch up - the problem continues


As far as I'm concerned, this is still an Apple TV issue since I'm not a Sky customer. But, from my calls to Apple it seems they don't have a clue what's going on (as usual).


Apple needs to contact Sky and put pressure on them to get this resolved!

I am able to watch the Sky Sports replay on my smart tv with AppleTV app.

I am not able to watch it on my iPad (10g). Putting the horrendous Apple F1 coverage aside, this is infuriating. I have followed all the troubleshooting steps. I can watch Apple’s awful coverage. I can even see that I have started watching the Sky replay elswhere. When I try to hit the “Full Replay” button, there is no response. Nothing. The “+/checkmark” button will even toggle.

I had the same issue with live SkyTV coverage. The appearance from this experience is that SkyTV coverage is not available on my iPad.

I also want an answer to this. If Apple is deciding to restrict access to F1 to their platforms, they risk alienating the entire US F1 fan base by ruining the experience we're all accustomed to. Many of us do NOT like or want Apple products or services. We just want to be able to watch F1 races on broadcast TV like we have been for years, and this honestly makes us despise Apple more.

Thanks for this tip!


But, I believe this only works for the actual race. I don't think this will work for the practice sessions nor would we be able to watch the pre-race show or any of the Sky Sport commentary between practice sessions.


It's a good work-around for just the race until Apple figures out how to fix this but it's still an issue and Apple needs to get this fixed ASAP!


Thanks,

Larry.
