The F1 Show - on Saturdays!
Go behind the scenes of the vibrant F1 paddock over race weekends in a revamped F1 Show.
The new-look show will be a celebration of the glitz and glamour of motorsport, taking fans into the heart of each of the season's exotic locations and capturing the eclectic personalities that surround each grand prix.
Broadcast after qualifying on Saturday, the show will be an opportunity for viewers to experience life backstage at a Formula 1 race, with a lighter format that is not exclusively focused on events on the track. Figures from around the sport will join the Sky F1 team for discussions, challenges and more, giving a fresh insight into what goes on away from the pitlane.
The first edition at the Australian GP airs after qualifying at 7.45am on Saturday March 24, with repeats of every show on the channel and available On Demand.
New race times means new race build-up
F1 races will start at 10 minutes past the hour in 2018, and Sky F1 now has a new race-day schedule to follow suit.
An hour-long 'Pit Lane LIVE!' will kick off our coverage an hour and 40 minutes before lights out, as our team of pundits discuss the race ahead and all the latest news from the paddock, with the show also including fascinating features.
The bumper race build-up then continues with our newly-named 'On the Grid LIVE!'; get ready for Martin Brundle's Grid Walk, pitlane updates from Ted Kravitz and the last words from drivers before the track action begins.
And after lights out (at 10 minutes past the hour, remember!), we will then hear more from the drivers in 'Paddock LIVE!' as the Sky F1 team round off the race weekend.
For example, here's how our schedule is looking for the Australian GP...
4.30am - Australian GP Pit Lane LIVE!
5.30am - Australian GP On the Grid LIVE!
6.10am - THE AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX LIVE!
8.30am - Australian GP Paddock LIVE!
