Yeah, me too. I subscribed to the Sky HD pack for an extra £10.25 per month on top of the usual Sky subscription (since that gives access to both Sky Sports F1 and Sky Sports F1 HD at no extra charge). For me, it comes with a free Sky+HD box and free installation. The offer lasts till 29 March 2012. I don't currently subscribe to Sky Sports or Sky Movies (just Sky Entertainment Extra) so I'm glad I can subscribe to F1 coverage without having to add Sky Sports (I don't watch football, golf etc).

From 9th March, Sky Sports F1 will be channel 408 and Sky Sports F1 HD will be channel 459.

IMO the future of F1 is on Sky sadly ... BBC F1 coverage on TV should continue in its partial format till the BBC contract with Ecclestone runs out. Beyond that, who knows just how much more marginalised F1 TV coverage may become on the BBC.

In the end, I had no choice but to pay Rupert Murdoch :(
