Correct.

The BBC can show only show two channels of Olympic coverage - one on BBC One/BBC Two and the other on the BBC Red Button channel.

Re: Virgin TV (2024)

With any luck there will be several pop-up broadcast channels live again for Eurosport subscribers. A deal with Polish cable operator Vectra has already been announced for 7 HD & 1 UHD broadcast channels during the Paris games.

In what way does the V6 need this service?

At the moment the Sky Sports background app links to the compressed SD satellite streams provided by Sky on V6 & TiVO. This is why the V6 does not get the additional tennis streams etc. These were also used by the Horizon boxes until Sky provided the new internet driven app recently.
