To watch on sky it will be full price of course. Why would it be any cheaper?

I have had 3 months of free SkySports with just re runs of all sports and sport documentaries but now the football is back it will go back to the usual price.

I thought so, here in Australia we usually get the race highlights trimmed down to 1 hour on the following evening, free to air.
I guess thats better than youtube highlights which is usually compressed to 12 minutes.

I raised the topic because I cant to find any broadcast details yet, I guess all bets are off this season and maybe have to watch at the casino at 3am.

Yeah, all I know about broadcasting is Ted Kravitz and Simon Lazenby both said they will be in Austria. So I guess the whole SkySports team will be there.

What about Brundle? He's getting on a bit and has had quite a few health issues recently. Would Sky consider it too risky to have him in his usual role?

No idea on that one, I just assume if he wasn't , Sky would have mentioned it ? But if he goes and sticks to the guidelines, then surely he will be safe enough. He can be in his own commentary box , so its not like he will be in close proximity with anyone.
