Sky Sports UHD isn't a channel either that's accessed via Sports > UHD or via the red button on the standard HD channel.
 
It currently only airs Premier League matches although F1 will come next year.

			No. F1 will be owned by Liberty Media, which is a separate company. 
 And the F1 rights agreements for a good number of years are already signed.

			BoxNation have had a PPV channel on Sky for 2-3 years now. All events on their HD channel are available PPV.
 BoxNation subscribers get the PPV events at no extra cost.
