Nothing for the moment, I doubt the FA Cup has any bearing. However there has been speculation that it's winding down it's F1 coverage.
Where did you read that?Quote:

Contracts in F1 mean nothing.
So we could lose F1 off BBC altogether?
I wouldn't say it's imminent, but possible.
I hope not, I much prefer listening to dc and Eddie than brundle.
Stating the obvious here but this is bound to lose f1 a load of viewing figures.... This can't be what Bernie wants, surely?
Ben Edwards and DC are doing a great job, watched the sky coverage the other week and it was ****....
F1 is heading down if not death road then badly injured road. If there is ever no F1 coverage on free view then F1 in the UK is screwed.
Correct me if I'm wrong but there's 5 sporting events that have to be shown on free tv in the uk by law.
The Olympics (Winter and Summer) The Fa Cup final, The World Cup, Wimbledon and the British Grand Prix!
A customer told me this a few weeks ago so I wasn't 100% sure
If someone could shed some light would be tidy.
