This weekend's qualy is on BBC 2 and my box hadn't linked to it. When I manually added the recording it didn't offer to record the series so I think it's being treated as a one-off.

i manually added the qualifying for saturday , then the race on BBC1 has appeared with me doing nothing

Mine already had the race but at first I thought it was a repeat of the last event where mine missed the qualy. Tbh I thought that Freesat SL could move between channels.
