Sky Sports F1 took over rights to broadcast Formula 1 in the UK in 2012 and its current agreement ran through 2024, an extension of the deal, through the 2029 season, was announced by the parties.
Overall, not surprised about the Sky F1 deal going to 2029. Anyone dreaming about a BBC, ITV or a Channel 4 return it wasn’t going to happen due to high costs (rumoured around £250 million per season). Not surprised as well that Sky has Vito to introduce F1TV pro which would been a cheaper option for UK viewers and whould give more viewers to watch F1.
Oh well the status quo conitinuing in Formula 1.
