I believe ITV’s deal is exclusive FTA rights, so quite possible one or more of the pay providers will still have it next season.
However, it is getting rather silly now. I suspect some of this year’s broadcasters are only interested because two of the teams are ‘owned’ by British F1 champions (whatever that actually means outside of some free PR).
Formula E is a decent enough series, and has managed to garner a fanbase. Yet most broadcasters don’t seem to have any interest in it. Unless Extreme E somehow manages to pull off something spectacular, I can’t see it fairing any better in the long term.
