doesn't sound very good for F1 on terrestrial, and it makes the Sky / BBC deal sound more dodgy!

They're not. It's a report into the deal they did 3 years ago.

It's what the NAO does. They look at past spending and assess whether the public has received fair value. This is the report that the article refers to.
