Possible to cancel Sky F1?

Options
With the increase in Sky price wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to (or has) cancel Sky F1 and save a few pennies. Have no interest in F1 but don't want to lose the Sport channels by cancelling them altogether so that is not an option.

    Unfortunately, Sky sports @ ~ £4.60 per week, won't subsidise many pints in all the pubs I go to!!!:rotfl:

    It is not exclusively part of the sports package.

    If you have Sky sports OR Sky HD then you will have Sky F1.

    If you cancel HD then that saves a tenner a month., so that makes £15 per month to spend in the pub if you cancel both

    When you look at it that way Sky sports is a bit of a bargain, if you are a sports fan.
    Personally I'd rather spend the money on a small plate carvery and half a Sneck Lifter once a week!
