And, given that they are specifically for the Olympics, why would we need them before the Olymics exactly?

Virgin Media to put heat TV on the L package from launch.
Virgin Media has confrim that heat TV will be on both the L and XL Packages from launch tomorrow on Virgin Channel 338.

Wikipedia says that Q is only broadcasting on the XL Package right now.
NOTE to all: Box TV will close Q TV down at 6am on Tuesday for heat TV to launch at 5pm on the same day.

I presume you are talking of the BBC Red Button service which is a BBC service delivered to Virgin Media for TiVo and the SAME SERVICE delivered to other connected TVs. The TiVo implementation is better as its internet connection is dedicated.
The Olympics will deliver linear channels which will not suffer from the issues of the red button service.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 3.
Will Sky Sports F1 Red Button launch this month on non TiVo boxes???
Virgin Media says in March 2012 that red button services are available which will allow you to follow a driver, check out what’s going on in the pits, follow the practice sessions and much more will launch in July 2012 to all viewers.

If you have a V, V HD or V+ HD box we expect to bring red button services to Sky Sports F1 in July 2012.
