That's not how I read it. I think it might be more narrow than that, but still a real problem. I expect it's more a case of older images that might have found their way into the Motorsports Network library and they mistakenly think they have exclusive rights, or those images may have been licensed for broad and liberal usage in the past and now the licensing details are lost. I post more speculation in the thread mentioned below.
I see no indication that Motorsports Network think they own all F1 images. I mean, that's a bit crazy. If anyone wanted to try to pull that move, it would be FOM.
