Er...the BBC have not shown F1 for 12 years. Back then, they only had two channels available so something often had to lose out. Like it or not, F1 still only has a relatively small following compared to, say, soap operas and football. In any case, ITV were the same when they first started and they didn't even show qualifying at all until they were pressurised into doing so. IMHO there were no plus points to ITV getting F1 and lots of minuses.
I'm just glad it is finally returning to its true home
