I really am not surprised.

That survey they have is pointless. It can be done over and over again. If they wanted real results, they should have had an IP checker or something at least.

No amount of investigations, protests, polls or petitions will change the deal; time to let it go; ultimately it's a private deal that is not affected by the 'Grade A sport needing to be on free-to-air TV" rule, unfortunately the only thing keeping the sport free-to-air was the teams; but now the teams seem to be happier now they all get an extra £1m per season!

Bernie is like some kind of CIA spook. He knows how to release little snippets of info to keep us all happy, and then he downgrades the situation gradually, until we're left with the bare essentials and feeling happy that...at least we still get some f1!!!

Or maybe I've read too many spy novels.

Or giving too much credit to the CIA.......

Didn't the CIA say that a Chinese embassy was a legitimate target in Afghanistan, or was it Iraq?!?!

Who cares? What about Radio 5, that's the decent commentary that the cool kids listen to.

Bah! Humbug! I would also like to see the action as well as listen to it

Look at the state of the comments below that article you posted. Still lots of anger. I can't be arsed with it all anymore. Petty whining. I can't afford Sky, but that doesn't mean I am UNABLE to follow F1. I'm going to grudgingly make do with half-live and half-highlights, and think myself lucky that not everything was transferred to Sky.

The majority of people who say they aren't watching anymore WILL watch, despite their crying. The ones that don't obviously didn't hold the true passion in the first place.

you can always get a live stream from another country and listen to Radio5.

Yes indeed. How does one go about getting a live stream? I've never done it before...

Unless my hours change I'm going to miss all the races - I work Sunday afternoons though there is a TV in the canteen so if Sundays are as quiet as Fridays nights I'm laughing.

Will it be possible to combine Brundle's voice and Sky's image?
