While it would appear that it will be business as usual in terms of what is broadcast by 10 (unless the administrator pulls the pin), the elephant in the room is how much of the tv rights deal may have to be foregone by SCA.
While Foxtel pay the bulk of the $40ish million per annum deal, and depending on how the contract is written, may actually be liable for the full amount. But if not, and there is a separate deal directly between SCA and 10, this will blow a whole in the budget as any amounts outstanding can be written off as irrecoverable with a new owner not going to take on 10's outstanding debts. A new owner is likely to cherry pick as to what parts of the business he takes on, so should the deal to broadcast Supercars not be profitable, 10 may only continue to broadcast on renegotiated terms.
