I certainly don't like the idea that sometime in the future F1 coverage may not be available on free-to-air tv here in the UK, but as the commercial rights holder isn't it Bernie's job to make money for FOM & CVC? That's what he's doing, and has done very well for many years.

It would be a commercial suicide if F1 went to PPV in big countries like UK, USA or Germany. Considering the ridicolous artificial product they are giving us now, I can imagine the demand not being that high. I wouldnt pay for sure, just for principle. If they go back to real tracks and non-artificial rules, then no problems, I would cough out the money at once.
