Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
Anyone who thinks that F1 will suddenly strike a favourable deal with VM should remember:
- Liberty Media has bought F1, not Liberty Global International which owns VM.
- The current Channel 4/Sky deal runs to 2019 after which there is a Sky exclusive deal to 2024.
- In 2024, John Malone who has stakes in both Liberty companies will be 83. He will probably have stepped down from his companies which will probably make them even more independent than they are...so expect no favouritism to VM from F1 by the time that Sky's rights end!
