    F1 coming to Sky Sports

    BBC TV and Sky Sports have been awarded the live rights to Formula One between 2012 and 2018.

    The move will bring increased choice, innovation and breadth of coverage to UK and Irish motor racing fans.

    "We will give Formula One the full Sky Sports treatment with a commitment to each race never seen before on UK television."
    Barney Francis, Sky Sports
    Quotes of the week
    The two leading UK sports broadcasters will offer fans unparalleled live High Definition coverage of every race of the season.

    The broadcasting partnership will include:

    All races, qualifying and practice sessions live on Sky Sports across TV, Online and Mobile and Tablet devices

    Half the races and qualifying sessions remain live on BBC TV, Online and Mobile including key races such as the British Grand Prix, Monaco Grand Prix and the final race of the season.

    Extensive BBC highlights on TV, Online and Mobile, of all races and qualifying sessions that BBC is not covering live

    Build- up coverage of each Grand Prix on BBC News, Sky Sports News and Sky News

    Extensive multi-platform coverage including red button, bbc.co.uk/sport and skysports.com

    The audiences brought by Sky and BBC will ensure Formula 1 reaches the widest possible audience.

    BBC Radio Five and Sports Extra will continue to cover every race live.

    Barney Francis, Managing Director of Sky Sports, said: "This is fantastic news for F1 fans and Sky Sports will be the only place to follow every race live and in HD.

    "We will give F1 the full Sky Sports treatment with a commitment to each race never seen before on UK television. As well as unrivalled build up to each race on Sky Sports News, we will broadcast in-depth live coverage of every session.

                      Agreed. The racing this year has been the best for the past 15 years or so.

                        Increased chioce and innovation- increased adverts you mean.
                        their programmes on sky 1 are unwatchable because of adverts evry 7 minutes, and have you ever tried to watch live golf on sky sport- an absolute joke.They have the cheek to charge you for it then show advert after advert after advert.

                          couldnt agree more
                          shite tv and you pay for it
                          the only people that really subscribe to sky sports are football fans
                          i cant see how this is going to benefit your average f1 fan
                          its all about koont ecclestone wanting more money and the bbc cant afford his demands
                          ~~~~ the koont out of it altogether
