Bernie turns the beeb into a patsy……

Well, 24 hours have passed and more information is slowly filtering in about the new Sky/BBC deal from next year. In essence, all races will be shown live on the existing Sky Sports channels without ad breaks during the racing. The bbc will show 10 races live, and the others will have a highlights program put out at 5/6pm on a Sunday night for about 75 minutes in duration. To save costs the commentary team will be shared, but different anchors. Hopefully as a viewer this means we can continue with Martin Brundle and David Coulthard although they are apparently out of contract at the end of this year anyway but you’d like to think it would continue.
