Agreed. 2024 is eight years away and that's when Sky's exclusive deal with Formula 1, commencing in 2019, finishes.
As well as LGI connections to Liberty Media, it's important to note that the new chairman of F1 (Chase Carey) is also vice chairman of 21st Centuryy Fox which has Sky connections via its 39% stake and James Murdoch's chairmanship of Sky; he's the CEO of 21st Century Fox.
