I've not seen the contract, so I can't comment on that, but I understand (from Bernie Ecclestone in an interview on BBC) that Bernie Ecclestone asked the BBC to show 'extended highlights'. I also understand (from Martin Whitmarsh in an interview on BBC) that Bernie Ecclestone told FOTA the BBC would be showing a full re-run for each non live race.
I can understand the BBC not wanting another terrestrial TV channel to get the rights though.
