Noticed this morning that spark sport now have unskippable ads before replays on the android app. Had to wait for the ad to play before I could even cast.

Oh really maybe just switched on recently for the mobile version of Android app as I hadn't noticed it till today? Regardless it really grinds my gears I have unsubscribed, will just use f1tv from now which is ok but I really like the full sky f1 coverage you get with spark.

Errrr oh well

Just got this too. Went to watch the F1 Qualifying and had a stupid ad.
Drives me nuts there is no highlighted points to skip to. IE there's a line I can drag a point to, but how hard would it be to have a point in the timone, Q1 Start, Q2 start etc.
I don't know watch the pre show or analysis

Adds would be acceptable at $5-$10/mth but not at $25/mth

I have Spark Sport for F1, F2 and F3 but it really frustrates me. The main grips are having to keep putting my password in (ATV or Panny TV) the not knowing where the start of the race is and the clunky menu. Sometimes it loads straight away but other times under the respective menu it just sits there with nothing happening.

The ads annoy me but I normally just go and make a coffee. Picture quality is pretty good but I feel they could do better with the whole menu layout or is it just me? 😀
