Last Live race on the BBC? (even last one full stop)

If any of you UK viewers voted Conservative either in 2010 or this year, you might like to consider that you're partly to blame. It's purely because the BBC is under ideological pressure to cut costs that moves like this are being made. That pressure comes from a government led by a man who socialises not with senior BBC figures, but senior News Corp ones. It hardly takes a rocket scientist to see the link.

To be honest though Labour were not exactly in bed with F1 either. Murdoch has been heavily involved with British governments since the 1980's with News Corp doing their bit to influence every election. I get the impression the government have been receiving back handers from Murdoch for decades. Labour refused to help fund Silverstone which I can understand even though Bernie made a payment to the Labour Party. It's always been a corrupt yet disinterested link.

I can see the BBC going PPV before long to be honest.
