On Sunday we have the British GP, the Cricket Final and Wimbledon Final.
SWMBO will want to watch Tennis, I want to watch the cricket and the F1.
I'm between a rock and a hard place.
Anyone else so conflicted!

I'll be at Chateau Impney... Not interested in the tennis or cricket and hardly any interest in F1, so no contest really!

We have a similar issue. I like cricket (and it looks like being a very exciting final) but I'm also ok with tennis. Mrs. W. likes tennis but she's also fine with cricket. We are united in our total disinterest in modern F1.
As I don't subscribe to any premium sports channels it will be Wimbledon live on the BBC and the cricket highlights in the evening.
Curiously, the BBC News report yesterday mentioned that the Cricket World Cup final was set to get its largest audience ever because it would be shown on terrestrial television for the first time, with Channel 4 having the rights. All the TV guides, of course, say the British Grand Prix is on Channel 4.
It seems highly unlikely (sadly) that C4 will make a late change and forgo their F1 coverage in favour of the cricket. However, if they do that's where I'll be - either side of one tennis match.

Ditto, Graham. I will find something more valuable to do. Perhaps a nap in the shade!

A quick Google search has answered my own question... " Channel 4 will show Sky's cricket coverage from 09:00 BST before coverage moves to More 4 at 13:15 while the British Grand Prix airs on Channel 4. The cricket then returns to Channel 4 after the race. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/48957255
