My only option of watching F1 now is on Speed TV in the US. Holy christ, how bad is the coverage - the knowledge from the commentators makes Legard seem like a veteran F1 world champ... and they have an ad break every 5 seconds... this is going to drive me nuts.

Guess I could investigate signing up to a UK proxy and watching through BBC iPlayer, don't know if I can take US coverage, wanted to throw the TV through the window.

I'm glad that we get BBC1 and BBC2 on the cable here in Belgium, sometimes the programs are not shown due to licence agreements and we get a blank picture. Thankfully F1 is allowed through tho smile
I was thinking of signing up to a proxy to get the BBC coverage on the net and I have a Humanx HD sat dish sitting waiting to be put up.

I thought PHers despised the BBC smile

Maybe they are only appreciated when one doesn't have the choice to watch them.
