Yeah this is the thing with Main Event as I think its a legacy of the old Sky Sports 1/2 thing where it's fed to other broadcasters who don't have the themed channels, so if something overruns and they have to go to something else pretty much immediately that's due to start, it looks a bit sloppy.
Sometimes it depends on the scheduling. If its the preable/warm-up/build-up which is basically some VT and a load of waffling,, it can be dropped on Main Event (such as if football kicks off at 4:30 and Main Event is due to join at 4pm but the motor racing has been held up and will finish at c. 4:20pm, it'll usually carry on on Main Event), otherwise you get the whole "for viewers on Main Event please switch over to Sky Sports F1 to continue watching" thing.
