Rejected petition Stop the British Grandprix to be aired on Pay-Per-View from 2019

Formula 1 will no longer be shown on terrestrial television from 2019 after Sky Sports announced it had agreed an exclusive deal to broadcast the sport.

Formula 1 and the British Grand Prix are part of our sporting history. Let's not lose another iconic sporting event from every television in GB.
