Very interesting, but raises a few questions.

They use the term "freeview customers" which is technically terestial tv, so are they gona waste limited space on a mux for a channel that only appears a few days a month?

Is the F1 not going to be included with sly sports now?

"The new channel is set to be included free of charge in Sky and Virgin Media packages" but what type of package?

I still think £10 a month is too much, what will the channel show out of season? Terestial doesn't have the capacity for a channel that may only transmit 6 days a month.

Confused

Yes AL, as I keep saying, get a motor or use disque switching with another LNB for 19'e
