    I cant see the point of having the same race live on 2channels, seems pointless.

    It won’t be. BBC will have the right to show highlights from the races it doesn’t show. Basically, it’s a way for BBC to retain F1 coverage without the crippling costs. Another nail in the corporation’s coffin and News Corp are still doing the hammering.

    Are you just making random posts now? Yes, but they don’t show the same races live. Sky shows some live, BBC shows the others (including the most prestigious ones) and both can show highlights. This is not a complex concept, is it?

    I thought that Sky get them all live, BBC get half live?

    So inevitably they will both show the same race live at the same time?

    I only skimmed the article though so am happy to be told I am wrong.

    Especially if it's complex.

    How can they not show the same races live when Sky are showing all of the races live? Thats what the BBC article says.

    as long as they keep Brundle on the coverage I will be happy.

    Martin Brundle, Ian Darke, Barry McGuigan, John McEnroe and Martin Costello are the best pundits/commentators accros any sport.
