Like the BBC but not HD?
All the important stuff, just Qualifying that is, like the BBC… I haven’t gone interactive yet but practise and the F1 Show (xxGeorgiexx) are crap unless you’re watching your first ever F1 race…Not many I would have thought!
And Eddie Jordan is taller, less witty and bizarrely similar looking in a lanky doppleganger sort of way!
Being a true Yorkshire man I’ve just watched qualifying on BBC iplayer.
But…whatever you watch it on, how good was that qualifying lap!! Go Lewis.
Poor show from the red stable.

RTL ? freeview/tinternet ? [/quote]
Free to air German TV channel on ASTRA satetlite that shows all qualifying and races live. Mix this with Radio 5 Live commentary and away you go.

quote=The83man]Live coverage on RTL this morning was very good and free. Not HD, of course. How was the live coverage on Sky?? [/quote]
It as really , really excellantv, and for faultless. Very please indeed 
And it’s free as we have HD and with Dolby 5 :1 sound , that playing through the cinema system . We could have been there , BRILLIANT
Have to say that the BBC’s highlights were very good, in my opinion. Then again I would rather pull out my own toenails and eat them than pay money to the Murdoch pocket.
Your choice , you money, your loss!!! :whistle:
count the pennies in your pocket - I think you’ll find you have less.
Up at 0515 hrs this morning , to watch the buildup before the race at 0600hrs, brilliant , race, & commentary, insight, and overall coverage. Wonderfull , well done Mclaren & Button !!! … And of course Sky F1 
And it just get’s better
Watched the F1 coverage over here with IDG and Graham his mate from New Caladonia, good coverage with the surround sound Digital SKY feed … only marred by bloody adverts …
At least it was free though
Damn !
Now I know Button has won and it aint even been on the rip off BBC yet

M7EXG , whoops , sorry, didn’t think!!!
I’m mystified what you’ve been watching on Sky. I saw a preview show on THurs night, the commentary was cheesey(like a cinema newsreel), the interviews with Schu and Vett were pinched from German TV and English commentary added over(like Eurosport at times) and, all-in-all it was rubbish.
Today’s live coverage of the race was just the usual BernieTv feed with Brundle and Croft doing the commentary like on the BBC.
Glad I have not had to pay any more for it, as I discovered at the last minute(Thurs) that as an existing Hd customer with a Sky Sport channel I was eligible to view.

You obviously don’t read the papers or even watch any TV , as it’s been , advertised by Sky as free to HD subscribers for over 4 months in every national paper, every free to view channel except BBC , plus magazines and periodicals , where do you live Mars ? Jupiter ?

Lol! Indeed the case…which means more to spend on toys 
I think Podger has a soft spot for SKY and maybe some rose tinted glasses. 
It has to be said, I’m a Sky kinda guy tbh!
Not a neighbour of yours then on Planet Zanussi?

The adverts were made up for by Judith’s brie nibbles and the view out of the window. Thanks for the hospitality!

I am rarely tempted respond to personal attacks but(forgive this SELOC response): Why don’t you stick your head up your arse?
