Just to let you know that Sky Sports is FREE from 6AM Friday until midnight Sunday. This includes the F1 channel so those that don't have Sky Sports will be able to watch the GP for FREE!

This can only mean that fewer people have joined Sky than they were predicting...

It is very good coverage but compared to being free it is rather exzpensive

o well, hey ho

Do not be mislead!
As I understand it, it's not 'free'. In the UK, it's only available to existing Sky TV or Virgin Media customers, both of which need to be paid for!

Yay! I can get to watch the Indycars on SS4 on Sunday without having to visit my mate Justin.

So had I paid to get Sky it would have actually cost me £40 per race not £36 as previously expected.

What a rip off.

But I pay for sky anyway so it hasn't cost me any extra to watch the F1. Result.

Been watching the sky f1 today and not very impressed.
The presenters are too dull no chemistry.

Watched P3 this morning and I have to say Johnny Herbert is a real asset.

Agreed Herbert has been brilliant since they brought him in full time, surpised they have stuck with Hill he doesn't really contribute anything interesting.

He must have given up the BRDC for this job - I expect he's paid until the end of the year so there's not really any point in paying him to sit at home.
