Here in Portugal I am using Freeview with a VPN on my Firestick to reach the main services (BBC, ITV). The internet connection is adequate (I', guessing 30 meg) but suffers during the early evening.
BBC is mostly adequate to good but ITV Hub suffers from buffering quite a bit (as well as annoyingly long advert breaks). Although it's fine when it's working it's quite a long way from perfect. I am going to try setting up a hotspot on my phone over my 4G to see if it's better, if I can be bothered!:-)
I did watch the F1 over the weekend on a legit internet Sky connection and that was mostly OK. (I also went to watch some live motor racing at Portimao over the weekend - 4hr race, the final of the European le mans 2021 series but that's another story!
