So I've seen Martin Brundle demonstrate how a driver sits in an F1 car and Pinkham interviewing Paul DiResta 17 times now. Surely Sky could do a better job with this channel outside of race weekends. Have they not missed a massive opportunity by not insisting on the rights to repeat broadcast all the race weekends and associated programs on a loop?

The races are repeated constantly though.

I don't really see the problem - the weekend coverage is good and they show GP2 as well - no complaints here.

Were they not also going to show Indicar as well?

I had watched some of the f1 Legends interviews and a few season reviews 95, 96,97 quite like them, brings back memorys which I had forgotten.

I've been on at varying times of the day all this week and seen nothing but the same thing on loop and the occasional Legends interview.

Sure, I agree it's better than nothing, but it seems like a massive missed opportunity to me because it could be so much better.

On a Grandprix weekend I simply don't have time to watch GP2 and the other support races (Unless my Dad records those instead of the F1 by mistake!), so repeat those in the three week gap and I'll get them all watched eventually.
