ITV is trying to make F1 mainstream rather than a minority interest sport.
Some moan about commercials but in th Beeb's final year in '96, they were the only broadcaster not to include ads in the broadcast. Strangely it was only during their final year that they started to treat F1 properly with live qualy, etc.
For the BBC to get it back, they would have to out bid, ITV,C4,Channel 5, etc. Can they afford it?
Just be thankful that Murdoch hasnt been able to get his dirty hands on it, and bought the rights outright, forcing every fan to get SKY.
