My days of watching F1 are even more numbered now.
On one aspect I say fair play to BBC as they have to reduce their spend. Shame sky hasn't got Sky motorsports as I'd pay for that. I.e. nascar, btcc, le mans, f1. |

Not a good day for F1.
I hope the BBC can still show replays.

Agree'd ...
I don't think the BBC has ever been fully committed to Motorsport, this just proves it |

Personally I don't think the tax payer should be paying for broadcasting F1, wimbledon etc. That's what commercial TV is for like ITV, Sky etc.

I've lost interest in F1 but this is still a shame. However I can't fault their coverage of the Moto GP. The commentators on sky for it are dull and stroke their beards far too much. The BBC commentators are ace. Likewise when I've watched F1 recently Jake Humphrey is doing a good job ! It's a shame but Sky is a business and it had a chance to buy it so they did. I wonder what the viewing figures will do now ?

F1 should be free to view, and I see the contructors have asked for clarification.

Its all going to go downhill for F1 as far as Im concerned. In the seventies I used to enjoy the bbc coverage of boxing. I knew who all the boxers were as the beep showed all the fights. Since sky got big and took over most of the sports coverage I barely know any boxers british or otherwise.
I dont see myself watching every other race live and highlights on the beep.

Aye, this is crap news, the teams can’t be too happy either.
Mind you, it’s a good time to point out to friends that they now have time to race RC cars at the weekend if they’re not glued to the telly.

There's many things that the BBC spends the licence fee income on, which some some wouldn't class as value for money. Such as Eastenders, Casualty, Wimbledon, Golf, Olympics next year and loads of other things so why not continue with F1 It really is a pants decision |

Bad news really.
All F1 viewers should boycott any Sky coverage so it becomes glaringly obvious in the viewing figures what the fans want and where... |

The thing is F1 now has 10million viewers on the BBC. Thats a lot of viewers way higher than all of the expensive drama shows etc that they pump out. So the economics related to viewers and cost is ignored due to internal snobbery etc.
I'm gutted, its been a regular program for me since I was a lad watching it with my dad, and now my lad watches it with me.. Hopefully the replay show will be as good as match of the day is and it will be a good substitute

so does this mean if we dont want sky we just get 3 live races to watch all year on the bbc,or can we see all the other races repeated on bbc something channel

You are going to get half of the races live on bbc or pay I think £20.25 a month to see it on sky sports.
Here's the bbc explanation , they think wimbledon golf and horseracing is far more important. see video http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/moto...ne/9550930.stm

I'm not keen on some Sky commentators, so if I do watch the races on Sky, I might just press the mute button and listen the Radio 5 coverage, but then the pictures to sound maybe out of sync a bit.
