Much like in US Sports with the Aflac trivia question or the Old Spice in game stats , still if it means the race is uninteruppted. :D

All but one TV broadcasters are not allowed to add their own graphics to the FOM word feed coverage starting from the pre 5-minute sting to the podium presentation after the race.
(SPEED TV excepted)

They'll cut away from the coverage to whatever their helicopter above is filming then 'bring us stats' sponsored by EA Sports, presumably the only company in the world who can count passes in football.

So basically no news :D Like the twitter team would know anyway. Every poster you go past says Sky the only place to watch all 5 Sky Sports channels in High Definition so I wouldn't hold your breath until Sky bring something new out.

And why would that mean these channels would arrive ? I hope for all on here they do however can't see F1 having any bearing on this.

If I know Sky it will be Sky Sports F1 HD.

Joking aside I think Sky will put F1 on the following channels:

Sky Sports 1 - when no football is on.
Sky Sports 2 - when football is on.

Do not think it would work again after last time?

Quote:

This was in large part because of the failure of the "F1 Digital +" Channel launched through Sky in the United Kingdom. Prices were too high for viewers, considering they could watch both the qualifying and the races themselves free on ITV.
