BBC to show half the season, but sky to show the whole season

Pay per view per race here we come....

People aren't taking it very well at the moment

It's all about money and F1 can get more from Sky. Ecclestone only cares about how much they can make.

at minimum £32 a month they can stick it where the sun don't shine. I'm sure i'll be checking out some more local pubs next year!

apparently if the bbc don't show a race live, they could show it in full, but delayed. I think i could live with that.
