Because they are going to broadcast the 2010 winter games and 2012 olympics.

Bit far out to advertise but cheers, do this mean that TV1 has lost the rights to the next games?

As part of the contract with the IOC, I think they are required to show the rings for a certain period of time leading up to the games.
