It's a very strange deal given that the current BBC deal with Bernie goes through to the end of 2013. Sounds to me like the BBC have cut and run rather than Sky pushing in - COULD be that Sky taking on all the races has saved half the races not being televised live at all in the UK.
Very strange also that there has been no real mention of a deal in the offing before now.
Feel for you guys in the UK - particularly when the coverage from the BBC has been so good.
Weird decision but then if the BBC were only prepared to do half the races live, it may have been the only course of action open to Bernie.
