Read our privacy policy Sky F1 will use a new state-of-the-art studio for this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix coverage – the first time their whole presenting team will not be on-site at a race. Sky Sports presenter Natalie Pinkham revealed the new studio on Thursday, equipped with augmented reality graphics and a 360-degree filming environment, at Sky Studios in Osterley. The arena-shaped studio, which includes a massive LED floor and high resolution screens, has also been used for Sky’s coverage of Monday Night Football, US Open tennis and the NFL play-offs. This move represents the first time since Sky landed the rights to F1 in the UK in 2012 that the channel has not had their full presenting team on-site.
