F1 season pass 2021

[joshyf1]

Will this happen? If so I hope it's not going to cost too much more than £200 as I am on a limited budget as it is

Any news guys? Paid the last 3 years for the pass but if its more than £200 this year for a full season including practice, qualifying and race day I aint going to bother.

Look at the post that's maked for the solution. 

No more annual sports passes thanks to covid, at best Now TV are doing full blown month pass deals. They have reintroduced 6 months movies and entertainment bundles, but this is based on your account. 

Any offers you might get will be within your account.

Look out for emails offering Sports for £19.99month.  I got this recently.  Don’t know how long F1 is on for, but should work out less than £200/annum.

Sky Sports Month Pass offer, £19.99 a month for 6 months: Offer ends 22/02/2021. ‘Over 40% saving’ is against the price of Sky Sports Month Pass at full price (£33.99pm). Offer valid for the named recipient of this email only. Voucher code entitles recipient to a Sky SportsMonth Pass for £19.99 per month for 6 months. Pass auto renews at standard price after 6 months unless cancelled (currently £33.99 a month). You can cancel anytime. Offer not available to customers with an active Sky Sports Month Pass, unless you are in the last 30 days of your offer.

Is this a permanent decision, or is there a chance the F1 season pass may return in 2022 or beyond?

My plan failing any kind of offer is:

CH4 (Qualifying): 27 Mar, 17 Apr, 8 May, 22 May, 31 Jul, 28 Aug : £0

Day Passes(Race Only): 28 Mar, 18 Apr, 9 May, 23 May, 1 Aug, 29 Aug : 6x£10 = £60

CH4 (Qualifying + Race, British GP) 17-18 Jul : £0

Month Passes(Qualifying + Race): 5 Jun, 4 Sep, 9 Oct, 20 Nov : 4x£34 = £136

Boost: 22 Mar, 22 Apr, 22 May, 22 Jun, 22 Jul, 4 Sep, 9 Oct, 20 Nov:  8*£3 = £24

Total : £60 + £136 + £24  = £220

Per Race £220/22 = £10

Just had a look, still no offers.

Whats actually really ticking me off with this now is that I only learned a few days ago of the price which people in the US pay for F1 TV, the official Formula 1 stream.  For $90 a year! They have access to all live races, live timings and driver tracker etc plus archive races.  F1 TV in UK only has archive and timings.

Our only options are a Sky subscription, or Now TV sports pass which is £10...per day! or £33 per month.  It’s actually daylight robbery how much we in the UK have to pay for the very same stream that F1 TV has.  If they’re telling us we’re paying for Crofty, Brundle & co then I can skip that...as long as I can watch F1 live for FP, Qualy and Race.

I understand F1 wants to gain a larger audience in the US, but they shouldn’t be doing it at the expense of its loyal UK fan base who have been watching the sport for years!!

I am also waiting for any sign of an offer. If there is one it always seems to be last minute after the testing.

If there isn't one I will be skipping it and finding alternative means.

I agree that thanks to Bernie and Sky's deal we are the ones getting shafted while the rest of the world gets to watch F1 for a much better price.

Also given the cost I am not a fan of Sky double dipping with ads on pay TV.

I have zero interest in the other Sky Sports channels.

@Kenjara 

With you on all your points.

The Bernie deal and lock in to Sky for so long in UK and Ireland is a real PITA.

I have zero interest in other sports - if I could sign up to F1 Pro to just watch this single sport I would - are you listening Liberty Media?

At least I won't have to put up with the facile Sky1Sports F1 commentators (Ex Drivers excluded here).
