The same goes for any major live sporting event...results appear instantly these days.

I do record the F1, but have to make sure I don't look at the news on my phone, and try to avoid it from tv and radio. I'm not always successful lol

Although if you are watching something on one channel, with something else on another channel, then you'd need to record one. Depends how long you are going to keep the recordings for? They wouldn't take up that much space if you watched it pretty much straight away. Otherwise you run risk of finding out the result elsewhere.
No choice but to record - for instance there are 17 live rugby union/league matches plus the FA Cup Final on Saturday alone.

Secret is to watch the games you will hear the result of first.

As for your suggestion that UHD recordings won't take up that much space if you watched it pretty quickly - I am fairly sure the amount of space each recording will use is the same if you keep it for 1 day or 1 month. Of course the cumulative space used will be more the longer you keep them for, but this also applies to HD recordings.

My thoughts on the pitiful disk space remain
