It's true however that they could broadcast it on ITV2 or 3.

If I were a sponsor of a F1 team, I would not be happy with this year's
rules -- less air time means my company's product is not getting the same
exposure I got in previous years.

Just thinking... what time is Sunday qualifying in Oz? Not during GMTV,
no doubt...

Probably claim they can't move the God-slot.

I would guess that Qually-2 would usually be four hours before the GP start.
For most Euro GPs that would be at 09:00 BST and GMTV have the slot until
09:25.

The official FIA timetable ought to be online already, but isn't. Last year
it was released on 11 Feb. Maybe they are still discussing qualifying formats?

I missed most of the American Football playoffs as Channel5 only
showed the regular season games ... then *nada* for the playoffs.
ITV only have a half-hour magazine-type coverage of the WRC.
... and now the F1 qualifying ...
... then there's the CH4 losing the test cricket to consider ...

... I'm *this* close >||< to getting Sky ....
