Luisa Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 Hi, I am just wondering what sports playmakers show, and if there is a way to see the program before sailing Does anyone know if they show formula 1 when sailing in Europe?

Ray Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 This Would depend if they pay for premium sports channels which would allow them to broadcast it. In UK sky holds the rights for showing live F1 races all other channels can only show highlights later in the Evening. I would guess every other European country was the same because F1 is big business. As races are a Sunday and the fact that most will be over before Sail Away, you may be able to stream online while still in port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was played on November 6, 1869. The rules governing play were based on the London Football Association's 1863 rules that disallowed carrying or throwing the ball. For spectators, therefore, the game more closely resembled soccer[1] than gridiron football. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeachGal Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 Sky sports is part of the sports package, but we were unable to see F1 on the west coast. I would be surprised if a sailing in Europe didn't show the F1 races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right... unfortunately for F1 fans in the U.S. we won't see races unless we get the streaming internet package while on board.
