Yeah but SKY aren't trying to charge extra for it as a stand alone channel. SKY don't just show the race, they also broadcast the qualifying and have various shows during the week building up to each race. To pad their football channel out, BT would need to show both teams training through the week live and have coverage of the away teams bus journey to the home teams ground etc...
