So Formula 1 will only be seen from every race next season on Sky Sports. Half the races only for the next six years will be shown on the BBC which gives Sky a big advantage obviously.

This annoys me that the BBC wouldn't pay for this in full as they coverage is excellent and it gets great ratings so I don't see what the problem is. I have no doubt Sky will do the coverage justice and it will be excellent. I hope there has been some common sense and they will share the commentary team.

It was certainly a shock to me and it doesn't affect me that much as I have Sky but I feel for a number of friends that don't have Sky. I shall watch the responses about this with interest.
