Where's Fridays BBC TV Silverstone F1 Practice ?

[robinessex]

NO F1 Practice coverage on BBC TV. I was under the impression that the British GP was to be one of their full coverage broadcasts. I presume they have covered it for the rest of the world to see though. Of course, Wimbledon has saturation cover channels 1 & 2, plus 301. BBC 3 & 4 are of air. BBC stink.

First practice was on earlier, now 301 are showing Wimbledon

According to BBC website, the Friday practice isn't available on Freeview. Why ?

It was on the BBC Sport site live but you didn't miss much, a lot of slowish wet laps and very little of interest happened.

it's on Freeview channel 301, although it says Wimbledon it is FP2 that is being shown.

[matt3001]

You didn't miss much. Only 3 cars moved for the first 45 mins of FP2

It was on Freesat too, and now repeating it, BBC Red Button

I know Wimbledon is taking up all the RB time at the moment, but does anyone else think it was a nice touch having 1hrs worth of 'classic' races on the RB while the Monaco GP was on? I think they should do that for all the Races.

I watched it on 301 Freeview. Not that it was worth watching. Covered in splash-o-vison. Very little in the way of practice. So whatever the reason you could not see it you missed nothing.
