BBC is considering dropping F1 Coverage.

OH FML!!!!!!

I'd say the best F1 coverage in English currently is BBC. They did a fantastic job in putting a pre-race show, technical coverage by Martin Brundle, no commercial in-race coverage, and post race red button forum. They showed the world how Formula 1 should be broadcast to the world.

But the damn government post a freeze on BBC licence fee, forcing them to think ways to cut cost. Including dropping the Formula 1 Coverage.

Now Channel 4 (whatever that is) is showing interest, however, like ITV, they are commercial based station and thus, commercial break in the middle of lap 15 when Kobayashi is about to make the overtake.
