Sky has announced a new deal to show Formula 1 and all races will be in glorious 4K Ultra HD from the 2017 season.

The new F1 deal sees Sky box-off live coverage of Formula 1 until 2024. And from the start of the 2017 F1 Championship season, every race will be shown in 4K, via the newly-launched Sky Q service.

Sky will launch its 4K content offering this summer, potentially around the start of the Premier League football season in August. It will only be available to Sky Q subscribers.
