Channel 4 and Sky Sports to broadcast 2019 British Grand Prix
F1 News
The British Grand Prix will be broadcast live on both Sky Sports and Channel 4 this weekend. The TV rights fell exclusively to Sky Sports, but due to F1 rules, they must show the home race without a paywall. Details are below.
Channel 4 will broadcast every single session from the Silverstone circuit, including all three practice sessions, qualifying and the race. The same can be said about Sky Sports who will follow their usual race weekend broadcast schedule for the 2019 Formula 1 season.
The usual highlights show on Channel 4 will not run on Sunday because they'll be broadcasting live from Silverstone. On Wednesday, Formula 1 confirmed that Silverstone will continue to host the British Grand Prix until at least 2024. It's unconfirmed whether Channel 4 will host the coverage, but the race will be shown live in the UK.
