Default Picking up F1 from RTX next year

there is no way on this planet I will be paying Sky for F1 next season, I
would rather not watch it, however much of an F1 nut I am.

I have heard it's possible to pickup the Free RTL feed (and listen to R5
Live for the commentary), however it requires some kit.. Some someone
help me out on what's needed...

I currently have a Samsung SMT-S7800 Freesat box (which I am very happy
with). As this will be the only thing I watch on "non-astra", I don't
mind manually switching LNB or stuff once every couple of weeks (can it be
done with a switch box?). Will I need a bigger dish and some "cranked"
LNB arm? Does the Samsung SMT-S7800 allow manual tuning to non-Astra
frequencies?

Any help in screwing over Muchdoch/Ecclestone and saving my bank balance
at the same time much appreciated.
