If sky want to sweeten their customers then good for them but due to the fact the F1 contract was ordered to sky on a silver platter by the BBC then it would be a good idea to offer it as a standalone to maximise the customer that don't have sky and don't want a full SS subcription but sky are too greedy to think of that !!!!

At the risk of going over old ground here, I find myself in the unusual position of on Sky's side here-and in fact the answer to your gripe is in your own post. The BBC alone are to blame for the fact that f1 is no longer free to air-it is their greedy desire to retain a footprint in the sport at the expense of the viewing public that is the problem. Had they acted in the best interests of the sport's fans rather than of the trust then we 'd now be looking forward to a free season, in hd, on channel 4. Hard to blame Sky for any of this.
