I've missed a Fair number of races this season.

I don't have a sky subscription. I usually watch the races on now TV.

How or where can I watch previous races?
 
Think some of the highlights are on YouTube from the official F1 channel, however will only be a few minutes per race.
 
You can still watch the full Belgium race and the Italian highlights on 4oD. Any earlier races are no longer available on 4oD. Without a Sky sub and Sky Go, I'm not sure there is any other way to watch other races not on 4oD.
 
I've given up on this sport.

Caught the highlights of the Japanese race on YouTube


And it was enough to satisfy me. So think I'll stick to watching these instead.
 
It's a shame F1 don't put up the full race and/or extended highlights online after the race - other sports do it, doesn't seem to affect the live viewing figures.

Also they don't seem to know how to exploit the potential footage they could be using - though its improved a bit lately but some of the first person views, etc. make far more interesting viewing if done right. Funny how they are gripping on so tightly they are actually doing more harm than good to the sport.

For the casual viewer that would be so much better with some onscreen annotations (i.e. floating driver name with a line down to the car that moved with the car briefly) - a lot of the commentary means nothing if you aren't fully invested in the sport.

Agreed, there's a lot more they could do to bring it into the 21st century so to speak
 
I think they're just being greedy lol. I think they should offer an alternative online subscription. I don't want to keep having to pay sky/now TV to watch this, when they decide to schedule it.
