See "The Company—Description of the Formula 1 Acquisition" for additional information regarding the Formula 1 Acquisition.

In connection with the closing of the Formula 1 Acquisition, we entered into a Shareholders Agreement with certain Formula 1 Selling Shareholders (the "shareholders agreement").

The Formula 1 Acquisition

The shares of FWONK to which this prospectus relates are comprised of 1,323,421 shares of FWONK issued to the Selling Stockholders at the Second Closing of the Formula 1 Acquisition. Such shares of FWONK constituted a portion of the purchase price payable to the Formula 1 Selling Shareholders under the Second SPA in exchange for 100% of the fully-diluted equity interests in Delta Topco (other than a nominal number of equity securities held by the Teams).

See "The Company—Description of the Formula 1 Acquisition" in the base prospectus and "Appendix: Business and Financial Information of Formula 1" to this prospectus supplement for additional information.

The shareholders agreement

In connection with the closing of the Formula 1 Acquisition, we entered into the shareholders agreement. Pursuant to the shareholders agreement, we agreed to file, as soon as reasonably practicable on or following the date of the Second Closing, a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of shares of FWONK comprised of (i) all shares of FWONK issued to the Formula 1 Selling Shareholders at the Second Closing of the Formula 1 Acquisition and (ii) approximately 15.7 million shares of FWONK, equaling the maximum number of shares of FWONK issuable upon the exchange of the Exchangeable Notes issued to the Formula 1 Selling Shareholders (the "Transaction Shelf Registration Statement"). Additionally, under the shareholders agreement, any Formula 1 Selling Shareholder party thereto is entitled to five demand registrations and unlimited piggyback registration rights to sell all or a portion of the shares held by such Formula 1 Selling Shareholder that are issued pursuant to the Second SPA or issued in exchange for Exchangeable Notes and that have not been transferred ("registrable securities") pursuant to a registration statement filed by Liberty Media. The aggregate market value of registrable securities that are the subject of a demand registration request, as measured by the market price on the date of such demand registration request, must be at least $100 million and Liberty Media will not be obligated to effect more than one demand registration statement in any 90 day calendar period. If a demand registration is an underwritten public offering (subject to certain exceptions), CVC, as shareholder representative, will select the managing underwriters and counsel for such offering, subject to the approval of Liberty Media (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld).

On January 23, 2017, CVC, as the shareholder representative, executed a waiver relating to the shareholders agreement pursuant to which Liberty Media agreed (a) to file the base prospectus of which this prospectus supplement forms a part relating to the offer and sale from time to time by the Selling Stockholders of up to 2,547,788 shares of FWONK and (b) as soon as reasonably practicable following the Second Closing but no later than February 13, 2017, to file an additional prospectus relating to the offer and sale from time to time by the Formula 1 Selling Shareholders of any remaining shares of FWONK covered by the Transaction Shelf Registration Statement.

The shareholders agreement also includes provisions regarding our and the Selling Stockholders' mutual indemnification rights and obligations relating to the registration of the Selling Stockholders'

Under the shareholders agreement, we agreed to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder named in this prospectus to the fullest extent lawful against damages, directly or indirectly caused by, relating to, arising out of, based upon or in connection with any untrue statement of material fact (or alleged untrue statement of material fact) in this prospectus, or any amendment or supplement hereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in this prospectus, or any amendment or supplement hereto, necessary to make the statements herein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Similarly, under the shareholders agreement, the Selling Stockholders agreed to indemnify us (and our officers, directors, controlling affiliates and affiliates of the foregoing) against any and all damages to the extent directly caused by any untrue statement of material fact (or alleged untrue statement of material fact) or any omission or alleged omission to the extent such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Liberty Media by the Selling Stockholder or on such Selling Stockholder's behalf, in either case expressly for use in this prospectus, or any amendment or supplement hereto. Each Selling Stockholder's obligation to indemnify us is limited to the net proceeds received by such Selling Stockholder from the sale of registrable securities related to the matter in which damages are sought.

The foregoing description describes certain material terms of the shareholders agreement.

convertible notes, we and certain of our executive officers and directors have agreed that for a period of 50 days after the date of the convertible notes purchase agreement, we will not, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the initial purchasers for that offering, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of our securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the convertible notes or any of our securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for FWONK or file any registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to any of the foregoing. However, this restriction in the convertible notes purchase agreement did not apply to our issuance of the notes offered in the convertible notes offering and are subject to certain other exceptions, including, without limitation, the registrations, issuances or sales of any FWONK shares in connection with the F-1 Acquisition, and the related compliance by us with our obligations under the registration rights we have granted to certain recipients of FWONK shares issued in connection with the F-1 Acquisition, issuances and registrations relating to equity compensation awards and certain private placements. See "Risk Factors—Risk Factors Related to Our Company, the Liberty Sirius XM Group, the Liberty Braves Group and the Formula One Group—Sales (or anticipated sales) of shares of FWONK issued in connection with the Formula 1 Acquisition may negatively affect the trading price of shares of FWONK" in the accompanying base prospectus.

If the restrictions under these lock-up agreements or the lock up agreements executed with the selling securityholders in this offering are waived, shares of FWONK may become available for resale into the market, subject to applicable law, which could reduce the market price of the shares.

➤

stabilizing transactions;

➤

short sales;

➤

purchases to cover positions created by short sales;

➤

imposition of penalty bids; and

➤

syndicate covering transactions.

Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the shares while this offering is in progress. Stabilization transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. These transactions may also include making short sales of the shares, which involve the sale by the underwriter of a greater number of shares of FWONK than they are required to purchase in

S-12

Table of Contents

Underwriting

this offering and purchasing shares of FWONK on the open market to cover short positions created by short sales.

The underwriter may close out any covered short position by purchasing shares in the open market. In making this determination, the underwriter will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market.

The underwriter must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriter is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares of FWONK in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchased in this offering.

These stabilizing transactions, short sales, purchases to cover positions created by short sales and syndicate covering transactions may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of shares of FWONK or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of such shares. As a result of these activities, the price of shares of FWONK may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. The underwriter may carry out these transactions on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. Neither we nor the underwriter make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the shares.

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

BUSINESS

Formula 1 holds exclusive commercial rights with respect to the World Championship, an annual, approximately nine-month long, motor race-based competition in which teams compete for the Constructors' Championship and drivers compete for the Drivers' Championship. The World Championship is a global series with a varying number of Events taking place in different countries around the world each season. For 2016, 21 Events took place in 21 countries across Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and North and South America. In 2015, the World Championship was followed by hundreds of millions of television viewers in over 200 territories, and Formula 1's largest Events have hosted live audiences in excess of 300,000 on race weekends, such as the British Grand Prix at the Silverstone circuit and the Mexican Grand Prix at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.

The World Championship has been held every year since 1950 and has featured many iconic drivers, Teams and Events over the last 66 years. Over this period, Formula 1 has become one of the world's most widely watched annual global sporting competitions.

Formula 1 is responsible for the commercial exploitation and development of the World Championship as well as various aspects of its management and administration, in the course of which it coordinates and transacts with the FIA, the governing body for world motor sport, the Teams, the race promoters that stage Events, various media organizations worldwide as well as advertisers and sponsors. Formula 1 also controls activities related to critical components of the World Championship, including filming Events, production of the international television feed and transport of its and the Teams' equipment, ensuring high quality and reducing delivery risk around the World Championship. Control over filming and the international television feed is important because it ensures the high quality of Formula 1's live feed and other programming, which underpins the appeal of the World Championship to broadcasters, advertisers and sponsors.

Formula 1 also generates revenues from a variety of other sources, including the operation of the Formula 1 Paddock Club (the "Paddock Club") hospitality program at most Events, freight, logistical and travel related services for the Teams and other third parties, the GP2 and GP3 race series, which run principally as support races during Event weekends, television production and post-production and other licensing of the commercial rights associated with Formula 1, for example in connection with video games.

Strategy

Formula 1's goal is to further broaden and increase the global scale and appeal of the World Championship in order to improve the overall value of Formula 1 as a sport and its financial performance. Key factors of this strategy include:

➤

continuing to seek and identify opportunities to expand and develop the Event calendar and bring Events to attractive and/or strategically important new markets outside of Europe, which typically have higher race promotion fees, while continuing to build on the foundation of the sport in Europe;

➤

developing advertising and sponsorship revenue, including increasing sales of Event-based packages and under the Global Partner program, and exploring opportunities in underexploited product categories;

➤

capturing opportunities created by media's evolution, including the growth of social media and the development of Formula 1's digital media assets; and

A-1

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

➤

building up the entertainment experience for fans and engaging with new fans on a global basis to further drive race attendance and television viewership.

Financial profile

For the year ended December 31, 2015, Formula 1 recorded total revenue of $1.7 billion, Adjusted OIBDA of $462 million and cash provided by operating activities of $492 million.

Sources of revenue

Formula 1 derives the majority of its revenue from race promotion, broadcasting and advertising and sponsorship arrangements, which we refer to as "primary F1 revenue." A significant majority of the race promotion, broadcasting and advertising and sponsorship contracts specify payments in advance and annual increases in the fees payable over the course of the contracts. The Formula 1 business has been characterized by strong revenue growth in expansionary years of the economic cycle and stability over the recent global financial crisis.

Race promotion

Formula 1 grants to race promoters the rights to host, stage and promote each Event. These rights are granted pursuant to contracts that typically have an initial term of five to seven years and often include an option, exercisable by Formula 1, to extend the contract for up to an additional five years. For established Events, the duration of the contract is more variable according to local market conditions. These contracts may allow for flat fees over the term, but more typically they include annual fee escalators over the life of the contract, which are typically based on annual movement in a selected consumer price index or fixed percentages of up to 5% per year. Formula 1's revenue from race promoters in 2015 represented 35.3% of total revenue.

Race promoters are generally circuit owners, local and national automobile clubs, special event organizers or governmental bodies. Race promoters generate revenue from ticket sales and sometimes from concessions, merchandising and secondary hospitality offerings (other than the Paddock Club).

Tickets are sold for the entire Event weekend or individual days. The race promoter is responsible for, among other things, obtaining the availability of an FIA sanctioned circuit, securing all necessary government and sporting approvals and ensuring that the Event is run in conformity with FIA regulations. To achieve FIA certification, the circuit must meet all FIA safety standards, which apply to medical facilities, circuit length, paddock and pit lane dimensions and other driver and spectator safety standards. The race promoter is responsible for providing customs, competitor, promotional and press facilities and ensuring appropriate access to the circuit and pit areas.

Broadcasting

Formula 1 licenses rights to broadcast Events on television and other media platforms in specified countries or regions and in specified languages. These may also include rights to broadcast the race, practice and qualifying sessions, interactive television/digital services, repeat broadcasts and highlights. These contracts, which we refer to as television rights agreements or "TRAs" typically have a term of three to five years. While annual fees from broadcasters may stay constant, they often increase each year during the term of the TRA by varying amounts typically of up to 10% per annum. Formula 1's revenue from TRAs in 2015 represented 32.3% of total revenue.

Formula 1's broadcasting revenue is generated from: (a) free-to-air television broadcasts, which are received by the end user without charge (other than any television license fee), and non-premium cable,

A-2

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

satellite and other broadcasts, which are received as part of a subscriber's basic package (together, "free-to-air television"); and (b) premium and pay-per-view cable and satellite broadcasts, where the subscriber pays a premium fee to receive programming on a package or per-event basis ("pay television"). Formula 1 currently has 12 free-to-air television agreements, nine pay television agreements, 27 agreements covering both free-to-air and pay television and four other agreements (one for transmissions to British bases overseas, two global news syndication and distribution contracts and one global in-flight/ship at sea distribution contract). Formula 1's key broadcasters include Channel 4 (free-to-air television) and Sky (pay television) in the United Kingdom, RTL (free-to-air television) and Sky Deutschland (pay television) in Germany, RAI (free-to-air television) and Sky Italia (pay television) in Italy, Movistar (pay television) in Spain, Canal+ (pay television) in France, Globo (free-to-air television) in Brazil, NBC (free-to-air television) in the United States, Fox Sports (pay television) in Pan Asia and beIn Sports (pay television) in the Middle East.

Viewers

Formula 1 believes that Formula 1 is attractive to broadcasters because of its premium live content and viewership, which is typically male orientated with above average incomes. Formula 1 has TRAs covering all significant countries and regions globally. In 2015, Formula 1 had a cumulative live television audience of hundreds of millions of unique viewers measured by the definition of 15 minutes of viewing time. This figure relates only to dedicated programming and does not include those viewers that see Formula 1 on the news or via other media. Formula 1 can have a positive effect on a network's viewership.

Viewership in a specific country can be influenced significantly by the performance of local drivers. For example, the previously very high viewership in Germany dropped after Michael Schumacher's original retirement in 2006 but increased in 2010 and 2011 because of Sebastian Vettel winning the Drivers' Championship in those years. More recently, audience reach in the Netherlands significantly increased as Max Verstappen made his debut for Toro Rosso in 2015. Formula 1 is able to suggest (subject to FIA approval) race times to maximize the sport's global viewership, including by introducing late afternoon and night races for Middle East and Asian Events to maximize the core European viewership.

Advertising and sponsorship

Formula 1 sells Event-based advertising and sponsorship in the form of trackside advertising and race title sponsorship packages. In addition, advertisers can acquire status as a Global Partner of Formula 1 and/or Official Supplier to Formula 1. These advertiser and sponsor contracts typically have a term of three to five years (but may on occasion be of longer duration). Payments often increase each year based on a fixed amount, a fixed percentage or in accordance with the United States or European consumer price index or another agreed metric. Separately, the Teams sell sponsorship rights primarily in the form of logo displays on cars, equipment and driver and Team uniforms, although Formula 1 does not derive any revenue from such sales. Many of the Team sponsors also purchase advertising and sponsorship from Formula 1. Formula 1's revenue from advertising and sponsorship contracts in 2015 represented 14.4% of total revenue.

Other revenue

Formula 1 also generates revenue from a variety of other sources including the operation of the Paddock Club race-based corporate hospitality program at most Events, freight and related logistical and travel services, support races at Events (either from the direct operation of the GP2 and GP3 series which are owned by Formula 1 or from the licensing of other third party series or individual race

A-3

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

events), various television production and post-production activities, and other Formula 1 ancillary operations. Formula 1's revenue from these other sources in 2015 represented 18.0% of its total revenue, and includes approximately 5% generated from the Teams' purchase of services from Formula 1.

Formula 1's business is global and diversified across six of the seven major regions in the world. In 2015, Europe, Asia, the Americas and the Middle East/Other accounted for 61.9%, 17.4%, 10.6% and 10.1%, respectively, of Formula 1's total revenue based on the location of the relevant trading counterparty's headquarters. Formula 1 has significantly expanded its business activities throughout the world by entering into additional broadcasting contracts and adding new Events such as those in Mexico, Singapore, Abu Dhabi, the United States, Russia and Azerbaijan.

FIA and the Teams

Formula 1's business is built on a number of key relationships—those with the FIA, the Teams and Formula 1's principal commercial partners. See "—Key Commercial Agreements" below for more information about Formula 1's relationships with the FIA and the Teams.

FIA

The FIA is the governing body for world motor sport and as such, is solely responsible for regulating the sporting, technical and safety aspects of the World Championship through the FIA's F1 Commission and World Motor Sport Council. The FIA regulates a number of motor sports, with the World Championship being the most prominent. The FIA owns the World Championship and has granted Formula 1 the exclusive commercial rights to the World Championship until the end of 2110 under the 100-Year Agreements. In addition, the FIA, through its World Motor Sport Council, approves the calendar for the World Championship each year. Under the 100-Year Agreements, Formula 1 is only permitted to enter into race promotion contracts that are substantially in the form agreed between Formula 1 and the FIA.

Teams

The Teams are the participants in the World Championship and its Events, competing for the annual Constructors' Championship, and their drivers compete for the annual Drivers' Championship. There are currently 11 Teams competing in the 2016 World Championship. To be eligible to compete, a Team is responsible for the design and manufacturing of certain key parts of its cars, including the chassis. This distinguishes Formula 1 from many other genres of motor sport and places special emphasis on the technological capabilities and innovative prowess of each Team. Currently, the Teams are supplied race engines by one of Ferrari, Mercedes, Renault or Honda. Under the terms of the Current Concorde Arrangements, Teams are entitled to receive significant team payments from a Formula 1 prize fund (the "Prize Fund") based primarily on their results in prior years' Constructors' Championships. Formula 1 has no direct or indirect ownership interest in any Team, nor does it have any contractual arrangements with the drivers, who are all employed or contracted directly by the Teams.

Each Team is responsible for securing its own drivers and funding the cost to race in the World Championship. They receive Team payments from Formula 1 (principally a share in the Prize Fund) as well as sponsorship and advertising revenues from their own partners. The Current Concorde Arrangements between Formula 1, the FIA and the Teams defines the terms of the Team's participation in the World Championship (for further detail on these arrangements, see "—Key Commercial Agreements—Current Concorde Arrangements" below.

A-4

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

Event calendar

The FIA's World Motor Sport Council considers and approves the World Championship calendar that Formula 1 proposes based on the agreed race promoter contracts for the forthcoming season. The World Championship calendar is typically approved in December for the following year's World Championship. Provisional approval typically occurs in September and as early as June. The race circuits used by race promoters must be approved by the FIA.

Race circuits

The World Championship takes place on a number of high profile iconic circuits, including Silverstone, Monaco and Singapore. Circuits are typically dedicated circuits of varying distances (typically three to six kilometers), with a combination of esses, straights, chicanes, bends, corners, curves, hairpins, climbs, descents and scenery. The circuit at Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium, for example, runs through a part of the Ardennes forest. Street races remain popular and races in Australia, Monaco, Singapore, Russia and Azerbaijan are all run on street (or temporary) circuits.

Event weekend

An Event typically takes place over a three day weekend. It begins with two practice sessions on Friday (except in Monaco, where Friday practices are moved to Thursday) and one practice on Saturday. A qualifying session is held after the practice session on Saturday, which determines the starting order for the race on Sunday. Each race typically takes up to two hours to complete with cars covering approximately 180 to 200 miles at top speeds of over 200 miles per hour. GP2 practice and qualifying occurs on Friday, with a race on Saturday and a sprint race on Sunday. There are also other independent third-party support series such as the Porsche Supercup, a GT motor sport series, and individual support events that run over the Event weekends. Formula 1 attracts a broad spectrum of fans including some of the world's most recognized personalities, music and film stars, sports personalities, royalty, high-profile business leaders and politicians.

Team economics

Over the years, a large number of Teams have participated in Formula 1, with Ferrari being the only Team which has participated in every World Championship since 1950. A significant number of the current Teams have been racing for many years, whether under their current or previous names. Team owners looking to exit Formula 1 can sell their Team to new owners who would then be able to start out in Formula 1 with a fully resourced Team, pre-developed technology and facilities and, in some cases, an established brand name with existing Prize Fund performance qualifications under the Current Concorde Arrangements.

All Teams compete in the World Championship with the ambition to finish as high in the Constructors' and Drivers' Championships as possible. Some Teams exist solely to race in Formula 1, whereas others may be used as a marketing opportunity for its parent company's core business. Car manufacturers may also invest in a Team to develop technology that will be used in their road cars for the retail market. Many Teams, including manufacturer owned Teams, participate to promote their brand.

Teams competing in Formula 1 require significant financial resources. In addition to its drivers, a Team employs a technical staff of mechanics, engineers and car designers together with a large support staff operation. Teams also incur costs in relation to their cars, equipment, testing and development.

A-5

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

The Teams generate the majority of their revenue from corporate sponsorship (which in some instances comes from parent companies) and Team payments from Formula 1. In addition, the leading Teams benefit from the sale of technology to other Teams or exploitation of their technology outside motor sport. Teams also raise some revenues from merchandising and licensing activities. Total revenues vary significantly from Team to Team but are principally driven by their performance in the World Championship and their attractiveness as an advertising and sponsorship platform.

Corporate sponsorship can consist of both monetary payments and contributions in-kind from suppliers. Team sponsors represent a variety of industries and include luxury automobiles, technology, telecommunications, financial services, energy and soft drinks.

The primary form of corporate exposure is through logo displays on cars, equipment and driver and Team uniforms, which are then on display during the live television broadcast and other media coverage of Events. For engine and other automotive related sponsors (such as tires, fuel, oil and engines), Formula 1 believes that Formula 1 sponsorship can create a heightened perception of engineering and technological proficiency and is likely to form a part of the sponsor's own research and development efforts.

Drivers

One of the distinctive features of the World Championship is the celebrity and diversity of its drivers. Differences in nationalities, temperaments and racing styles form part of the attractive mosaic of Formula 1. In the 1950s, Italians Giuseppe Farina and Alberto Ascari and British drivers Stirling Moss and Mike Hawthorn, together with Argentinian Juan Manuel Fangio, dominated Formula 1. As the sport's popularity and stature grew in the 1960s and 1970s, drivers from other countries such as the United States (Phil Hill and Mario Andretti), Brazil (Emerson Fittipaldi) and South Africa (Jody Scheckter) became some of the sport's most successful drivers.

Several of the sport's leading drivers of the 1980s, including Frenchman Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell of the United Kingdom and Brazilian Ayrton Senna, continued to be successful into the early 1990s. Michael Schumacher, who began his Formula 1 career in 1991, won five consecutive Drivers' Championships between 2000 and 2004 and seven in total. In 2016, there are five Drivers Champions competing, namely Lewis Hamilton (United Kingdom/Mercedes), Sebastian Vettel (Germany/Ferrari), Jenson Button (United Kingdom/McLaren), Fernando Alonso (Spain/McLaren) and Kimi Raikkonen (Finland/Ferrari).

The success of a local driver also impacts the television viewership and revenue generated from that country or region. World Champions from Germany (Vettel), Spain (Alonso) and the United Kingdom (Button and Hamilton) have helped grow and sustain the Formula 1 business in those countries. For this reason, Formula 1 encourages the development of drivers from other strategic markets. GP2 and GP3 provide the training ground and stepping stones to Formula 1 for these drivers.

To participate in Formula 1, all drivers are required to hold an FIA Super Licence, which is issued by the FIA only after the driver has met specific qualification criteria.

All drivers are employed or contracted by the Teams and have no contractual relationship with Formula 1.

Key commercial agreements

100-Year agreements

Under the 100-Year Agreements entered into by Formula 1 and the FIA in 2001, Formula 1 was granted an exclusive license with respect to all of the commercial rights to the World Championship, including its trademarks, in exchange for a significant one time fee of $313.6 million in 2001 and annual escalating regulatory fees to the FIA. This license, which took effect on January 1, 2011 and expires on December 31, 2110, maintains Formula 1's exclusive commercial rights to the World Championship which Formula 1 held under previous agreements with the FIA. For 2016, Formula 1 paid the FIA an approximate $26.8 million cash regulatory fee.

The 100-Year Agreements also provide that Formula 1 may appoint a representative to the FIA, subject to the FIA's approval, and that person will be a member of the FIA's F1 Commission and World Motor Sport Council. The FIA may terminate the 100-Year Agreements and Formula 1's exclusive license upon a change of control of SLEC Holdings Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Topco, unless the FIA previously approved the transaction. Formula 1 obtained the FIA's approval of its acquisition by Liberty Media under the 100-Year Agreements.

In addition, the FIA may terminate Formula 1's license if (i) certain Delta Topco subsidiaries party to the 100-Year Agreements become insolvent; (ii) Formula 1 fails to pay an amount due to the FIA and such non-payment is not cured within 30 days of FIA's demand for payment; (iii) arbitrators declare that Formula 1 materially breached the 100-Year Agreements and Formula 1 has not paid to the FIA certain penalties to cure such breach; or (iv) Formula 1 changes or removes certain of the FIA's rights without its prior consent.

Current Concorde Arrangements

From 1981 until 2012, successive Concorde Agreements governed the relationship between Formula 1, the FIA and the Teams, including the regulation of the World Championship. After the previous Concorde Agreement expired on December 31, 2012, Formula 1 entered into a separate binding agreement with each Team, securing the relevant Team's commitment to continue participating in the World Championship until December 31, 2020. In addition, Formula 1 entered into the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement with the FIA in 2013. The 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement, in addition to making certain modifications to the 100-Year Agreements for the period to end 2030, provides that the FIA agrees to provide certain sporting governance arrangements and regulatory safeguards for the benefit of the Teams, to enter into a new Concorde Agreement for a term of eight years (from 2013 to 2020) reflecting those sporting governance arrangements and regulatory safeguards and to enter into a subsequent Concorde Agreement from 2021 to 2030 or to extend the sporting governance arrangements or regulatory safeguards agreed under the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement on substantially the same terms from 2021 to 2030. The Team Agreements and the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement together provide the contractual framework for the World Championship that was previously set out in the Concorde Agreements. The Team Agreements and the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement are collectively referred to as the "Current Concorde Arrangements."

Under the Current Concorde Arrangements, among other things, the Teams agree to participate in the World Championship during the term of the Current Concorde Arrangements and Formula 1 agrees to make certain prize fund payments to them based on their performance in the Constructors' Championship and other principles (such as success, heritage and longevity in Formula 1) and measures of performance selected by Formula 1.

Team Agreements

As discussed above, Formula 1 and each of the Teams have entered into separate Team Agreements that establish a Prize Fund, establish procedures for setting the World Championship calendar, give the Teams the right to nominate and, in some cases, appoint directors to Delta Topco's board, and provide for certain termination rights.

The Team Agreements establish the Prize Fund to be paid to the Teams that is funded with a certain percentage of Formula 1's Prize Fund EBITDA plus additional amounts that Formula 1 expects to range from $120 million to $175 million. The majority of the Prize Fund is paid to individual Teams based on their results in prior Constructors' Championships, and the balance paid to Teams that have achieved certain milestones based on Formula 1's principles and measures of performance. In addition to their audit procedures performed on Formula 1, since 2008, Ernst & Young LLP have also performed certain agreed-upon procedures to provide a report to the Teams on the calculation, and allocation thereof, of all Team payments under the Prize Fund. See "Appendix: Business and Financial Information of Formula One—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Cost of Formula 1 Revenue" for additional description of the factors for determining the Prize Fund payments.

Under the Team Agreements, the consent of a majority of certain Teams is required if there are more than 20 Events in a season or more than 17 Events are held in a season and the number of Events that are held outside Europe, the US or Canada exceeds 60% or more of the total number of Events in that season.

The Team Agreements with McLaren and Mercedes grant the corporate parent of each of those Teams (McLaren Group Limited and Daimler AG, respectively) the right to appoint a Team Director until December 31, 2020 or the termination of the relevant Team Agreement, if earlier. Ferrari has an equivalent right, pursuant to a provision contained in all Team Agreements granting that right to the longest standing Team that has competed in the World Championship for the greatest number of seasons since 1950. Each of Daimler AG and Ferrari has exercised the relevant right and appointed a Team Director. Ferrari's Team Director is also entitled to be a member of Delta Topco's Audit and Ethics and Nomination Committees. Mercedes' Team Director is currently a member of the Nomination Committee of Delta Topco, although he is not appointed by right. In addition, the Teams have a right to propose two independent non-executive directors for a three-year term on Delta Topco's board of directors, although Delta Topco is not required to appoint any such candidate.

A Team's Agreement may be terminated if the Team ceases to be a constructor, fails to participate in more than three Events in a season, fails to submit a valid entry for participation in the World Championship or becomes insolvent. Teams may also terminate their Team Agreements by written notice to Formula 1 under certain circumstances, including:

➤

Formula 1 is unable to pay its debts when they become due;

➤

Formula 1 fails for three months to pay an aggregate amount due in excess of $10 million to the Team;

➤

with respect to the longest standing Team (currently Ferrari), Formula 1 experiences a change in control and, in the second or third fiscal year after the change in control, the Prize Fund EBITDA is less than 75% of the Prize Fund EBITDA in the fiscal year immediately preceding the change in control; or

➤

a controlling interest holder of Formula 1 is subject to sanctions imposed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control or is on the Financial Sanctions List in the United Kingdom.

Circuit rights agreements

Under circuit rights agreements (the "Circuit Rights Agreements"), Formula 1 acquires from race promoters certain rights to commercially exploit the Event, including the rights to sell trackside and "official supplier" advertising and title sponsorship, a space in which to operate the Paddock Club (other than at three Events) and commercial use of the name of the Event and circuit. In a few cases a cash payment is made for the grant of these circuit rights and in others Formula 1 offers a commission or share of revenue to a race promoter where they have been instrumental in introducing a new sponsor from its territory that purchases a title sponsorship or trackside advertising. Circuit Rights Agreements typically have a term that is tied to the relevant race promoter contract.

Competition

The World Championship competes with many alternative forms of entertainment, such as other sporting and live events, for television viewership, live attendance and advertising. For example, Formula 1 competes for broadcasting and advertising revenue with other global and regional Tier 1 sports, including the Olympic Games, FIFA World Cup, Champions League and Premier League. Within national markets, Formula 1 competes with local racing events, such as the Indianapolis 500 race and NASCAR in the United States.

Regulatory matters—competition laws

The operations and business of Formula 1 are subject to European and national competition laws which require Formula 1 at all times to ensure its business practices and agreements are consistent with the operation of competitive markets. Following an investigation by the EC into the commercialization of Formula 1 and related agreements in 1999, Formula 1 modified certain of its business practices and changed the terms of a number of its commercial contracts with Teams, broadcasters, promoters and the FIA. In October 2001, the EC issued two comfort letters to Formula 1 stating that it was no longer under investigation. Comfort letters are not binding on the EC and if it believes that there has been a material change in circumstances, further enforcement action could be taken. The EC issued a press release in October 2003 stating that it was satisfied that Formula 1 had complied with the modified practices and terms that had led to its issuing the 2001 comfort letters and that it had ended its monitoring of Formula 1's compliance.

Intellectual property

Formula 1 is the registered owner of a portfolio of trade mark registrations and applications, including for the F1 logo, the World Championship logo (which is used only in sporting contexts), "Formula One", "Formula 1", "F1" and "Grand Prix" when used in connection with any of the aforementioned and most of the official Event titles where they are capable of registration.

Formula 1 owns the copyright on footage of each Event since 1981. Ownership of this copyright enables Formula 1 to license that footage to broadcasters and to take legal action against infringers of that copyright. Under the Current Concorde Arrangements, Formula 1 also has the exclusive right, subject to limited exceptions, to use each Team's intellectual property rights (including image rights) to portray the World Championship and/or any Event in any visual form.

Licenses and permits

Formula 1 is required to obtain permits for the allocation and use of radio frequencies which are necessary for the operation of live camera and other equipment used in the production of live television images and also in live radio communications used by Formula 1, the FIA, the Teams (including car to pit radio transmissions) and the emergency services. Such radio frequency permits are obtained by a dedicated unit in the television production team, with assistance from the local race promoter. Typically, such radio frequency permits are obtained from the relevant governmental authority responsible for licensing the use of radio frequencies in the host country of the relevant Event. The requirements and procedures for obtaining such permits vary by country and they may involve the completion of written formalities or the inspection by the relevant governmental authority of all equipment to be operated with a radio frequency. Permits are typically issued subject to conditions, which Formula 1 has generally been able to satisfy.

Employees

As of December 31, 2015, Formula 1 had 361 employees, almost all of whom are based in England. To Formula 1's knowledge, none of Formula 1's employees are represented by a union. Formula 1 does not have a significant number of temporary employees. Formula 1 does engage a number of seasonal independent contractors for its technical operations.

Properties

As of the date hereof, Formula 1 owns no material property. Delta Topco is based in Jersey. In addition, as of the date hereof, Formula 1 leases spaces for its offices in London, England and for its television production and technical operations in Kent, England.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 AND 2015

The following discussion and analysis provides information concerning the results of operations and the financial condition of Formula 1. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Formula 1 financial statements and the notes thereto. Additionally, the following discussion should be read in conjunction with Liberty Media's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, including the definition of Adjusted OIBDA (with the addition of adding back amortization of prepaid contract rights). Upon completion of the second closing and acquisition of 100% of the fully diluted equity interests of Formula 1, Liberty Media believes that Formula 1 will be a separate reportable segment. It is expected that a discussion of Formula 1's stand- alone results of operations and financial condition will be similar to the discussion that follows.

Formula 1 stand-alone operating results, as adjusted, were as follows:

Primary Formula 1 revenue

Primary Formula 1 revenue represents the majority of Formula 1's revenue and is derived from the following streams:

➤

race promotion fees earned from granting the rights to host, stage and promote each Event on the World Championship calendar;

➤

broadcasting fees earned from licensing the right to broadcast Events on television and other platforms, including the internet; and

➤

advertising and sponsorship fees earned from the sale of World Championship and Event-related advertising and sponsorship rights.

Primary Formula 1 revenue accounted for 86% and 84% of total revenue for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Formula 1 has entered into long term contracts for its race promotion, broadcasting and advertising and sponsorship businesses. Such contracts typically have high credit quality counterparties, are for multi-year terms, have built in annual fee escalators and require payment in advance.

Additionally, Formula 1's primary revenue is spread over a large number of contracts with staggered expiration dates such that renewals occur on a rolling basis and are not overly concentrated in any one year. Historically, Formula 1's primary revenue has been largely contracted at the start of any year, and those contracts have generally translated into actual revenue by year end. The majority of Formula 1's

A-11

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

contracts are denominated in US Dollars, but Formula 1 also has a small number of contracts denominated in foreign currencies.

The fees received from race promoters under multi-year contracts that typically have an initial term of five to seven years and often include an option, exercisable by Formula 1, to extend the contract for up to an additional five years, are for a fixed amount per Event and are not typically tied to the race promoter's own income levels. For established Events, the duration of the contract is more variable according to local market conditions. These contracts may allow for flat fees over the term, but more typically they include annual fee escalators over the life of the contract which are typically based on annual movement in a selected consumer price index or fixed percentages of up to 5.0% per annum. Payments are often received in advance of the Event, with fees for Events outside Europe typically due three months before the relevant Event. The number and mix of Events has a material impact on Formula 1's race promotion fees. Over time, Formula 1 has revised and broadened the geographical mix of Events on the World Championship calendar; in recent years, some of the lower yielding historic European Events have been replaced or supplemented by additional Events outside Europe, which typically attract higher race promotion fees.

Formula 1 has TRAs covering all significant countries and regions globally. Under the TRAs, Formula 1 receives annual fees from broadcasters under contracts that are typically three to five years in duration. These contracts may allow for flat fees over the term, but more typically they include annual fee escalators over the life of the contract which are typically based on annual movement in a selected consumer price index or fixed percentages of up to 10.0% per annum. Fees are typically paid to Formula 1 in a series of installments starting at the beginning of each year and running in advance of the progression of the Events on the World Championship calendar. In addition to factors arising from the prevailing global economic climate, Formula 1's ability to renew or enter into new TRAs is influenced, among other reasons, by other factors such as the appreciation of live premium sports rights, viewership, active calendar management and the provision of new and enhanced content. Additionally, local factors, such as local broadcast market dynamics and competition, local driver performance and the presence of local Events, can also influence Formula 1's ability to renew or enter into new TRAs.

Formula 1 enters into contracts to sell Event-based advertising, including trackside and Event title sponsorship packages (which comprise a package of rights and benefits to associate a sponsor's brand with an Event). Formula 1 also enters into contracts to sell World Championship-related advertising in the form of the Global Partner program, under which advertisers obtain rights to associate their brands with Formula 1 through becoming Global Partners and Official Suppliers to the World Championship. Contracts typically run for three to five year terms (but may on occasion be of longer duration).

Payment terms vary by contract with multi-race, Global Partner and Official Supplier contracts typically being paid by periodic installment during each year and single race contracts typically being payable in installments shortly before and/or after the relevant race. Contract fees may be flat over the term but more often increase each year based on a fixed amount, a fixed percentage or in accordance with the movement in relevant consumer price indexes or another agreed metric. Advertising and sponsorship revenue is driven by change, and growth, in the World Championship calendar, the ability to tailor custom advertising and sponsorship packages to meet client objectives and prevailing macroeconomic conditions.

In each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, fifteen and fourteen Events on each season's World Championship calendar had taken place, respectively, including seven Events outside Europe in 2016 and 2015. A new Event in Azerbaijan, the earlier scheduling of the

A-12

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

Russian GP in 2016 and the return to the calendar of the German GP offset the rescheduling of events in Malaysia and Japan, which took place in March and September, respectively, in 2015 but were moved to October in 2016.

These calendar differences led to period over period variances in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015. Formula 1 recognizes revenue specific to Events, such as race promotion fees or Event-based advertising revenues, upon occurrence of the World Championship race of the related Event and recognizes season-based fees, such as those payable under TRAs or Global Partner and Official Supplier contracts, by recognizing the full season revenue pro rata across the total number of Events on the relevant World Championship calendar. As such, with 21 Events on the World Championship calendar in 2016, revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included ¹⁵/21 (71.4%) of the 2016 season-based revenue, compared to ¹⁴/19 (73.7%) of the 2015 season revenue being recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. In addition, Formula 1 recognized different Event-specific revenue in each period, reflecting the Events that had taken place year to date.

Primary Formula 1 revenue increased by $47 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Race promotion fees were $39 million higher due to the net impact of variances in the World Championship calendar, which saw one additional Event take place year to date in 2016, and the effect of other underlying contractual increases. Additionally, broadcasting revenue increased by $18 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in the prior year as the impact of positive renewals achieved with three broadcasters and other contractual uplifts in 2016 season fees more than offset the impact of lower pro rata recognition of season-based income than in 2015, lower fees on two contracts renewed for 2016 and adverse foreign exchange rate impacts on the translation of GBP-denominated contracts into US Dollars. Higher race promotion fees and broadcasting revenue were offset by $10 million lower advertising and sponsorship revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year as a result of lower pro rata recognition of season based fees, the impact of two non-renewed arrangements and timing differences in the recognition of income related to races taking place later in the year in 2016, which were only partially offset by underlying contract inflation and fee growth from new and renewed contracts.

Other Formula 1 revenue

Other Formula 1 revenue is generated from the operation of the Paddock Club at most Events, freight and related logistical and travel services, support races at Events (either from the direct operation of the GP2 and GP3 series which are owned by Formula 1 or from the licensing of other third party series or individual race events), various TV production and post-production activities, digital media services and other ancillary operations.

The $10 million reduction in Other Formula 1 revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily attributable to the recognition in the prior year of an $11 million one-time receipt related to the final settlement of a Dubai-related license agreement. Other variances included $4 million lower TV production and post-production revenues due to the timing of the Events on the year's World Championship calendar falling in the respective periods and changes to fees paid to Formula 1 for originating the international TV feed at three events and $2 million reduction in freight and logistical revenue driven by the impact of calendar timing differences and lower rates charged as a result of the impact of lower prevailing oil prices on aircraft charter rates, offset by a $5 million increase in GP2 and GP3 series revenue,

A-13

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

$1 million higher licensing revenue and $1 million higher miscellaneous income primarily arising from an insurance claim.

Cost of Formula 1 revenue

Cost of Formula 1 revenue consists of Team payments and Other costs of Formula 1 revenue. Cost of Formula 1 revenue increased $43 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Team payments are Formula 1's most significant cost and represent the total Prize Fund payments Teams are entitled to receive from Formula 1 based on their participation and performance in the Constructors' Championship and other principles and measures of performance, which include: (i) results, meaning a Team's record in past Constructors' Championships; (ii) success, meaning the long-term standing of a Team within the World Championship and its reputation within the sport; (iii) heritage, reflecting the extent of a Team's brand presence and perceived value to the World Championship over time; (iv) longevity, measuring the contribution of a Team by reference to the length of time a Team has been participating in the World Championship; and (v) commitment, recognizing anticipated ongoing participation and investment of a Team, including preparedness to provide a meaningful parent company guarantee, in order to secure medium- to long-term participation of Teams, and therefore the ongoing viability of the business. While there are some fixed fees, most of the Prize Fund elements are variable and are measured based on Formula 1's underlying financial performance prior to taking account of the Team payments.

World Championship calendar differences contribute to period over period variances in team payments. While there are no Team payments paid with respect to individual Events, Formula 1 recognizes an element of each year's Team payments on an Event by Event basis. Given that a large part of the Prize Fund is measured with reference to Formula 1's underlying financial performance, Formula 1 uses annual budgets to estimate the full year Team payment charge and, based on those calculations, records expenses on a pro rata Event by Event basis. At the end of each interim reporting period, Formula 1 then assesses performance against budget expectations and records any necessary adjustments to the recognition of variable Prize Fund elements in line with actual performance. As such, with 21 Events on the World Championship calendar in 2016, Team payment costs recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 include ¹⁵/21 (71.4%) of the budgeted 2016 season fixed and variable Prize Fund elements, compared to ¹⁴/19 (73.7%) during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, adjusted for Formula 1's actual results.

A-14

Table of Contents

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

Team payments increased by $24 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in Team payments during 2016 was attributable to the year to date recognition of $25 million of fees related to a new fixed payment to one team that had qualified for an additional performance-related Prize Fund element in 2016 under the terms agreed for the period from 2013 to 2020, offset by $1 million lower costs attributable to the net impact of (i) the recognition of a lower proportion of expected full year costs and (ii) the impact of expected growth in the full year variable Team payments based on underlying forecast performance.

Other costs of Formula 1 revenue include hospitality costs, which are principally related to catering and other aspects of the production and delivery of the Paddock Club, and circuit rights' fees payable under various agreements with race promoters to acquire certain commercial rights at Events, including the right to sell advertising, hospitality and support race opportunities. Other costs include annual FIA regulatory fees, advertising and sponsorship commissions and those incurred in the provision and sale of freight, travel and logistical services, GP2 and GP3 cars, parts and maintenance services, television production and post-production services, advertising production services and digital and social media activities. These costs are largely variable in nature and relate directly to revenue opportunities.

Other costs of Formula 1 revenue increased by $19 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in other costs of Formula 1 revenue during 2016 was attributable to the effect of a $7 million credit in 2015 arising from the recovery of previously expensed one-time support costs provided to the promoter of a proposed future Event, $6 million of higher supplier-related costs, $3 million in paid commissions, an approximately $4 million increase in GP2 and GP3 series costs and $2 million in higher TV production costs. All of these factors were partly offset by savings from $3 million of circuit rights fees and other advertising related costs.

The amortization of Formula 1 prepaid contract rights includes Team payment amortization, championship rights amortization and other contractual rights amortization. Team payments are amortized over the period 2013 to 2020 at $20 million per year, and the other prepaid rights are being amortized at $7 million per year, with all charges recorded evenly on a pro rata Event by Event basis during each year. Amortization of Formula 1 prepaid contract rights remained flat during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, with ¹⁵/21 (71.4%) of costs recognized year to date, compared to ¹⁴/19 (73.7%) during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs, legal, professional and other advisory fees, bad debt expense, rental expense, IT costs, non-Event-related travel costs, insurance premiums, maintenance and utility costs and other general office administration costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $15 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense during 2016 was driven by $8 million of advisory and other costs related to Liberty Media's acquisition of Formula 1, $7 million of higher net charges for doubtful debt provisions and $4 million of higher year to date losses from foreign exchange rate differences, the majority of which arose from translating Formula 1's GBP denominated cash and other assets following the Brexit vote on June 23, 2016. These variances were partly offset by $3 million of lower personnel costs and $1 million lower other net overhead costs.

Adjusted OIBDA

Formula 1's Adjusted OIBDA declined $21 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The change in Adjusted OIBDA was the result of the above-described fluctuations in revenue, cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation).

Stock-based compensation expense

Stock-based compensation expense is related to costs arising from the Delta Topco Option Scheme. Stock-based compensation expense decreased $67 million as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense during 2016 is attributable to changes during 2015 to the vesting assumptions, which were amended to reflect management's conclusions on the vesting period and led to an acceleration of the vesting of awards. The expense is also lower in 2016 than in the prior year, as the majority of the outstanding awards became fully vested by the end of 2015.

A-16

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense is attributable to certain assets becoming fully depreciated over time.

Operating income (loss)

Formula 1's operating income increased $47 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The change in operating income was the result of the above-described fluctuations in revenue and expenses.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2016, Formula 1 had cash and cash equivalents of $675 million.

The cash provided (used) by Formula 1 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

Significant cash outflows, other than the payment of Team payments, include the payment of interest and dividends. Formula 1 paid interest of $189 million and $137 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in interest payments during 2016 was largely due to interest paid in the fourth quarter in 2015 as opposed to the third quarter in 2016. Additionally, Formula 1 declared and paid dividends of $197 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. No dividends were declared or paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Formula 1's cash outflows were funded by its results from operations for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Formula 1's primary uses of cash are expected to continue to be the payment of Team payments and interest and swap costs on its debt, together with the settlement of other costs of Formula 1 revenue, including annual regulatory fees paid to the FIA, circuit rights' fees and technical and logistical costs, and payment of its selling, general and administrative expenses. Liberty Media expects Formula 1 to fund its projected uses of cash with cash provided by operations, cash on hand and borrowing capacity under its Facilities Agreements.

race promotion fees earned from granting the rights to host, stage and promote each Event on the World Championship calendar;

➤

broadcasting fees earned from licensing the right to broadcast Events on television and other platforms, including the internet; and

➤

advertising and sponsorship fees earned from the sale of World Championship and Event-related advertising and sponsorship rights.

Primary F1 revenue accounted for 82%, 81% and 81% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Formula 1 has entered into long term contracts for its race promotion, broadcasting and advertising and sponsorship businesses. Such contracts typically have high credit quality counterparties, are for multi-year terms, have built in annual fee escalators and require payment in advance.

Additionally, Formula 1's primary revenue is spread over a large number of contracts with staggered expiration dates such that renewals occur on a rolling basis and are not overly concentrated in any one year. Historically, Formula 1's primary revenue has been largely contracted at the start of any year, and those contracts have generally translated into actual revenue by year end. The majority of Formula 1's contracts are denominated in US Dollars, but Formula 1 also has a small number of contracts denominated in foreign currencies.

The fees received from race promoters under multi-year contracts that typically have an initial term of five to seven years and often include an option, exercisable by Formula 1, to extend the contract for up to an additional five years, are for a fixed amount per Event and are not typically tied to the race promoter's own income levels. For established Events, the duration of the contract is more variable according to local market conditions. These contracts may allow for flat fees over the term, but more typically they include annual fee escalators over the life of the contract, which are typically based on annual movement in a selected consumer price index or fixed percentages of up to 5.0% per annum. Payments are often received in advance of the Event, with fees for Events outside Europe typically due three months before the relevant Event. The number and mix of Events has a material impact on Formula 1's race promotion fees. The World Championship calendar consisted of 19 events in each of 2013, 2014 and 2015, including 12 Events outside Europe in each of 2013 and 2015, and 11 in 2014. In 2015, the calendar saw a new Event added in Mexico while the German Grand Prix^TM did not take place. 2014 saw new races added in Russia and Austria to replace the discontinued Events held in 2013 in Korea and India. Over time, Formula 1 has continuously revised and broadened the geographical mix of Events on the World Championship calendar, and this has seen some of the lower yielding historic European Events replaced by Events outside Europe, which typically attract higher race promotion fees.

Formula 1 has TRAs covering all significant countries and regions globally. Under the TRAs, Formula 1 receives annual fees from broadcasters under contracts that are typically three to five years in duration. These contracts may allow for flat fees over the term, but more typically they include annual fee escalators over the life of the contract, which are typically based on annual movement in a selected consumer price index or fixed percentages of up to 10.0% per annum. Fees are typically paid to Formula 1 in a series of installments starting at the beginning of each year and running in advance of the progression of the Events on the World Championship calendar. In addition to factors arising from the prevailing global economic climate, Formula 1's ability to renew or enter into new TRAs is influenced, among other reasons, by other factors such as the appreciation of live premium sports rights, viewership, active calendar management and the provision of new and enhanced content.

Additionally, local factors, such as local broadcast market dynamics and competition, local driver performance and the presence of local Events, can also influence Formula 1's ability to renew or enter into new TRAs.

Formula 1 enters into contracts to sell Event-based advertising, including trackside and Event title sponsorship packages (which comprise a package of rights and benefits to associate a sponsor's brand with an Event). Formula 1 also enters into contracts to sell World Championship-related advertising in the form of the Global Partner program, under which advertisers obtain rights to associate their

brands with Formula 1 through becoming Global Partners and Official Suppliers to the World Championship. Contracts typically run for three to five year terms (but may on occasion be of longer duration).

Payment terms vary by contract with multi-race, Global Partner and Official Supplier contracts typically being paid by periodic installment during each year and single race contracts typically being payable in installments shortly before and/or after the relevant race. Contract fees may be flat over the term but more often increase each year based on a fixed amount, a fixed percentage or in accordance with the movement in relevant consumer price indexes or another agreed metric. Advertising and sponsorship revenue is driven by change, and growth, in the World Championship calendar, the ability to tailor custom advertising and sponsorship packages to meet client objectives and prevailing macroeconomic conditions.

The $17 million increase in Primary F1 revenue during 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily attributable to a $29 million increase in race promotion fees, largely due to underlying contract fee escalation and the variance between fees generated from the new Event in Mexico compared to the fees received from the 2014 German Grand PrixM, which did not take place in 2015. The impact of growth in 2015 from strong renewals in the Latin American and Australian TRAs and underlying annual fee escalation in other TRAs was largely offset by the impact of weaker prevailing Euro, GBP and Australian dollar foreign exchange rates applied during the year to translate revenue from a small number of more significant non US-dollar contracts and the non-renewal of some smaller TRAs, such that broadcast revenue only grew by $3 million in 2015. These positive primary revenue drivers were partially offset by lower advertising and sponsorship sales. Prevailing economic conditions continued to result in a difficult environment for advertising and sponsorship, and lower terms on a renewal of two contracts more than offset new revenue and underlying contractual fee increases in other arrangements, such that advertising and sponsorship revenue in 2015 was $15 million lower than the prior year.

The $41 million increase in Primary F1 revenue during 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily attributable to a $41 million increase in broadcasting revenue due to revised TRAs in the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Spain and contractual rate escalators in other TRAs. Race promotion revenue increased by $4 million in 2014 compared to 2013 as annual contractual increases in the fees and positive calendar change effects were partly offset by the impact of revised terms for certain Events.

Advertising and sponsorship revenue fell $4 million due to the non-renewal of one material contract that was not fully offset by favorable renewal terms achieved on another, the sale of some additional sundry packages to existing advertisers and underlying contract escalation.

Other Formula 1 revenue

Other Formula 1 revenue is generated from the operation of the Formula 1 Paddock Club at most Events, freight and related logistical and travel services, support races at Events (either from the direct operation of the GP2 and GP3 series which are owned by Formula 1 or from the licensing of other third party series or individual race events), various TV production and post-production activities, digital media services and other ancillary operations.

The $22 million decrease in Other Formula 1 revenue during 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily attributable to the $18 million decrease in freight revenue driven by the combined effects of a decline in oil prices during 2015, one less Team competing in the World Championship and a change to the 2015 pre-season testing schedule, which, unlike 2014, saw no testing activity in Bahrain thereby removing an opportunity to generate freight revenue from arranging logistics for the Teams. Revenue from the GP2 and GP3 support race series, which is largely denominated in Euros, was also down $10 million in 2015 compared to 2014, driven by weaker prevailing Euro foreign exchange rates

applied during the year to translate revenue and by lower sales of parts and services to competing Teams. Revenue from hospitality, travel services and TV production and post-production activities was collectively $5 million lower in 2015 compared to 2014. Those impacts were offset by an $11 million one-time receipt related to the final settlement arrangements of a prior termination of an earlier Dubai-related license agreement.

The $22 million increase in Other Formula 1 revenue during 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily attributable to a $14 million growth in freight revenue driven by the impact of revenue earned from arranging logistics related to pre-season testing in Bahrain and lower applicable allowances for some Teams. Revenue from hospitality and other events increased $6 million in 2014 and GP2 and GP3 revenue increased $5 million arising mainly from an additional fee paid by a race promoter. These factors were partially offset by a decrease of $3 million in revenue from licensing of other ancillary rights, principally due to the recognition in 2013 of the first element of the settlement terms agreed for terminating the historic Dubai-related license agreement.

Cost of Formula 1 revenue

Cost of Formula 1 revenue consists of Team payments and Other costs of Formula 1 revenue. Cost of Formula 1 revenue increased $9 million and $53 million during each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior years.

Team payments are Formula 1's most significant cost and represent the total Prize Fund payments Teams are entitled to receive from Formula 1 based on their participation and performance in the Constructors' Championship and other principles and measures of performance, which include: (i) results, meaning a Team's record in past Constructors' Championships; (ii) success, meaning the long-term standing of a Team within the World Championship and its reputation within the sport; (iii) heritage, reflecting the extent of a Team's brand presence and perceived value to the World Championship over time; (iv) longevity, measuring the contribution of a Team by reference to the length of time a Team has been participating in the World Championship; and (v) commitment, recognizing anticipated ongoing participation and investment of a Team, including preparedness to provide a meaningful parent company guarantee, in order to secure medium- to long-term participation of Teams, and therefore the ongoing viability of the business. While there are some fixed fees, most of the Prize Fund elements are variable and are measured based on Formula 1's underlying financial performance prior to taking account of the Team payments.

Team payments increased by $41 million and $65 million during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior years. The increase in Team payments

A-21

Appendix: Business and financial information of Formula 1

during 2015 was attributable to the $19 million increase in the variable Prize Fund payments measured by reference to Formula 1's financial performance and a $22 million higher fee paid to one Team, as it qualified for an additional performance related Prize Fund element. In 2014, a $46 million increase in the variable Prize Fund payments and the net one-off $29 million credit impact on 2013's Team payments of the reversal of the earlier years' charges were only partially offset by the effect on 2014 of the elimination of one $10 million fixed payment, resulting in net $65 million higher charges in the year.

Other costs of Formula 1 revenue include hospitality costs, which are principally related to catering and other aspects of the production and delivery of the Formula 1 Paddock Club, and circuit rights' fees payable under various agreements with race promoters to acquire certain commercial rights at Events, including the right to sell advertising, hospitality and support race opportunities. Other costs include annual FIA regulatory fees, advertising and sponsorship commissions and those incurred in the provision and sale of freight, travel and logistical services, GP2 and GP3 cars, parts and maintenance services, television production and post-production services, advertising production services and digital and social media activities. These costs are largely variable in nature and relate directly to revenue opportunities.

Other costs of Formula 1 revenue decreased by $33 million and $12 million during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior years. The decrease in other costs of Formula 1 revenue during 2015 was attributable to $11 million in lower freight, travel and logistics costs, $7 million in reduced hospitality costs consistent with lower Paddock Club volumes and $4 million in lower costs arising from acquiring advertising rights and paying commissions to sponsorship agents. Cost of Formula 1 revenue was also impacted by the $4 million effect of the decline in Euro and GBP exchange rates during 2015. In 2015, Formula 1 also benefitted from a $7 million credit arising from the recovery of the majority of costs incurred in 2013 to support the promoter of a proposed future event. The decrease in other costs of Formula 1 revenue during 2014 was attributable to a $13 million decrease in fees paid to race promoters to obtain certain additional race based rights following the calendar change and the combined $14 million impact of recovering the $4 million element of the $10 million one-off support provided to the promoter of the proposed future event, which was expensed in 2013. These significant cost reductions were partially offset by $5 million higher television production costs in 2014, $4 million of digital media cost growth and $8 million in higher freight, travel and other logistics costs, with other costs of Formula 1 revenue netting to further cost savings of $2 million in 2014.

The amortization of Formula 1 prepaid contract rights includes Team payment amortization, championship rights amortization and other contractual rights amortization. In 2012 and 2013, a subsidiary of Formula 1 made payments totaling $163 million to the Teams competing in the World Championship in connection with the terms under which they had agreed to continue to participate in the World Championship seasons from 2013 to 2020. While these payments were paid in cash at the time, the fees are amortized over the period 2013 to 2020 at $20 million per year, with the charges recorded evenly on a pro rata Event by Event basis during each year in the period. Additionally, the amortization of prepaid rights includes a $3 million annual expense for the amortization of the prepayment of World Championship rights paid by a subsidiary of Formula 1 in 2001 to acquire, from the FIA, the commercial interests in the World Championship pursuant to the 100-Year Agreements. While the total amount was paid in cash during 2001, Formula 1 began amortizing this asset when the rights were brought into use on January 1, 2011. Additional amortization charges are due to other cash-settled transactions relating to other long term contractual arrangements entered into during 2013. These charges are also amortized over the period to which the underlying contractual commitments relate at an annual rate of approximately $4 million.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs, legal, professional and other advisory fees, bad debt expense, rental expense, IT costs, non-Event-related travel costs, insurance premiums, maintenance and utility costs and other general office administration costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1 million and $5 million during each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior years. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense during 2015 was due to $10 million in higher doubtful debt provisions, which was partially offset by $4 million in lower personnel costs, $3 million savings in legal, advisory and other professional fees and $2 million of other overhead savings, driven by the impact of weaker foreign exchange rates on the translation of largely GBP denominated costs. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense during 2014 was due to $5 million higher legal, advisory and other professional fees and $4 million in higher doubtful debt provisions, partially offset by $4 million of net foreign exchange gains during the year.

Adjusted OIBDA

Formula 1's Adjusted OIBDA decreased $15 million and increased $5 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The change in Adjusted OIBDA was the result of the above-described fluctuations in revenue, cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation).

Stock-based compensation expense

Stock-based compensation expense is related to costs arising from the Delta Topco Option Scheme. During each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, stock-based compensation expense increased $22 million and $70 million, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior years. The increase in stock-based compensation expense during 2015 was attributable to an amendment in management's vesting assumptions, which resulted in an acceleration of the charges recognized for the scheme. The increase in stock-based compensation expense during 2014 was attributable to the significantly lower expense recorded in 2013. During 2013, management significantly amended its prior vesting assumptions and concluded that vesting would likely occur over a longer period of time than had been initially selected in 2012 when Formula 1 had considered a possible initial public offering. As a result, the expense recorded in 2013 was materially reduced based on the spreading of costs over the longer adjusted vesting period. In addition, certain awards granted to one plan

participant were forfeited upon their departure from the company in 2013, which also contributed to the lower stock-based compensation expense.

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1 million during each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, as compared to the corresponding prior years. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense is attributable to certain assets becoming fully depreciated over time.

Operating income (loss)

Formula 1's operating income decreased $35 million and $64 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The change in operating income was the result of the above-described fluctuations in revenue and expenses.

Liquidity

As of December 31, 2015, Formula 1 had cash and cash equivalents of $452 million. The cash provided (used) by Formula 1 for the prior three years was as follows:

Significant cash outflows, other than the payment of Team payments, include the payment of interest and dividends. Formula 1 paid interest of $274 million, $230 million and $212 million during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Additionally, Formula 1 declared and paid dividends of $197 million and $796 million during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. No dividends were declared or paid during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Formula 1's cash outflows are funded by its results from operations as well as cash provided by borrowings on loan facilities. There were no borrowings or repayments of debt during 2015. During 2014, Formula 1 borrowed $2 billion and repaid $1.0 billion in outstanding third party debt and also repaid $332 million of shareholder loans. In 2013, Formula 1 repaid approximately $22 million in outstanding third party debt and $49 million of shareholder loans.

Formula 1's primary uses of cash are expected to continue to be the payment of Team payments and interest and swap costs on its debt, together with the settlement of other costs of Formula 1 revenue, including annual regulatory fees paid to the FIA, circuit rights' fees and technical and logistical costs, and payment of its selling, general and administrative expenses. Liberty Media expects Formula 1 to fund its projected uses of cash with cash provided by operations, cash on hand and borrowing capacity under its Facilities Agreements.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Formula 1 is exposed to market risk in the normal course of business due to its ongoing investing and financial activities. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. Formula 1 has established policies, procedures and internal processes governing its management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage its exposure to such risks.

Formula 1 is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its borrowing activities, which include borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations. The nature and amount of Formula 1's long-term and short-term debt are expected to vary as a result of future requirements, market conditions and other factors. Formula 1 expects to continue managing its exposure to interest rates by achieving what it believes is an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt, or through the use of interest rate swaps to hedge variable rate debt. Formula 1 believes this best protects it from interest rate risk. Formula 1 anticipates achieving this mix by (i) issuing fixed rate debt that it believes has a low stated interest rate and significant term to maturity, (ii) issuing variable rate debt with appropriate maturities and interest rates and/or (iii) entering into interest rate swap arrangements when deemed appropriate.

As of September 30, 2016, Formula 1 currently has $4,146 million in principal debt outstanding which carries a weighted average variable rate of approximately 5.5%. Formula 1 has managed interest rate risk by entering into a portfolio of $2,700 million of interest rate swaps at a weighted average rate of 1.999%, which partially mitigates the variable rate debt exposure of Formula 1 through December 31, 2019.

Formula 1 is exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations related primarily to the monetary assets and liabilities and financial results of Formula 1's foreign subsidiaries as well as revenue and operating cost contracts denominated in a limited number of foreign currencies, principally Great British Pounds ("GBP") and Euros ("EUR").

Assets and liabilities of certain of Formula 1's subsidiaries for which the functional currency is principally GBP or EUR are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and the statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Exchange rate fluctuations on translating foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars that result in unrealized gains or losses are referred to as translation adjustments. Cumulative translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) as a separate component of equity.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are recorded based on exchange rates at the time such transactions arise. Subsequent changes in exchange rates result in transaction gains and losses, which are reflected in income as unrealized (based on period-end translations) or realized upon settlement of the transactions. Cash flows from Formula 1's operations denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the average exchange rate for the period.

Accordingly, Formula 1 may experience economic loss and a negative impact on earnings and equity with respect to its holdings and contracts solely as a result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Formula 1 primarily manages its exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations by entering into both revenue and expense contracts denominated in foreign currencies in order to offset the financial impact of any foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Formula 1 also manages its exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts and options.
