In the UK, you probably can't.

Go to all the races in person.

Go to the pub and ask them to put it on.

there is no online pay service at all?

You can buy a Sky Sports pass on NowTV. You would need to pay the 10 for NowTV though I think.

I think the only way is to buy a day sports pass for Now Tv from EBay the weekends BBC don't show the races.

Just looked - £6 ~

do you have to have a nowtv box to have 1 day sky sport pass? is it possible to watch ONLINE on a PC? same with netflix

No, there is no F1 online package directly from FOM like there is for the EPL, as far as I can tell they've never released online only viewing deals. The only way is Skys NowTV box or a normal subscription.

There is a nowtv app for most operating systems.

i cant find the app for winodws 7 .

You can watch NOWTV in a web browser. Windows 7 doesn't have dedicated apps, for that you need 8, 8.1 or 10.

I pay for a £10 (£1 cheaper if you buy a voucher through GAME rather than direct from Sky) week pass for Sky Sports the weeks that the BBC doesn't have the live races. Luckily my LG TV has a Now TV app built into it, and to be honest, the streaming quality is practically HD. Also use my iPhone/iPad to watch it on the same subscription.

A lovely idea, but judging by how much my trip to Monza cost, it might be beyond the OP's budget.

If you have any friends of family that have SkyTV with F1 and have skygo/skygoexrtra you can ask them to sign you up as a user on their account (all supported by sky) and then you can watch through the skygo app or via SkyGo online.

I have done this for a few mates over the years.
