Please sign this petition now to keep formula 1 both free to view and on the BBC. We do not want the intrusion of adverts spoiling the viewing of this great sport, so much can happen in the time it takes to play adverts. Buttons last second winner against Vettel, the pit stops, the crashes, the noise of the engines and the excitement of great commentators. I truly believe that the production staff and commentators at the minute are the best there ever have been with the exeption of Murray Walker of course. Show your support to the BBC and lets get them to keep the Formula 1 on there channel.

I spent the weekend rewatching old races and realizing just how much I would miss the flow of the coverage without those familiar voices guiding us through the chaos. The prospect of losing that uninterrupted experience hits hard when I look at the screen and imagine commercials cutting into the final lap. I am digging through the archives to find the right people at the network to send these names to because our tradition deserves to stay on the public airwaves.

Seeing this level of support reminds me exactly why I fought for this in the first place. Formula 1 belongs on the BBC and this momentum proves that I am not the only one who refuses to lose that experience to adverts.

No ads please. The BBC gives us proper analysis without trying to sell us stuff every 5 mins.

F1 without the BBC is just wrong. Sky costs way too much and I dont want to pay just to watch a race.

Absolutely agree. Brundle and DC are the best team out there. Dont ruin it with adverts!

Keep it free for everyone. cant afford the expensive packages and it ruins the excitement when you miss a pit stop for a commercial break.
