The folding stuff will see that contract thrown in the shitter if the 2015 car doesn't win every race. Ever so slowly, the Ferrari F1 car is getting slower and slower each year. I get excited when both drivers qualify in the top ten!
Yeah it is, it's still on their site for 5 days now (I think it's up for 7 days after the race). It's not in 1080p, I'm pretty sure, and they split it into 3 parts - each coinciding with an ad break. But they don't show the ads.
I think 3 ads beats the every 7 lap ad break.

might head over and give the replay a watch to see how it goes. Pretty happy to rewatch that race it was a good one.

...but you still miss the parts of the race where the ads were shown!

yeah that sucks, you would think given they use the BBC coverage they would just put the whole thing up but I guess its still all advertising. Id rather it skip than have to sit through the ads though at least it keeps the atmosphere to a point.

Ugh. Ten just don't get it. Find a sky sports torrent.
Yeah, I am always a bit wary of torrents, never can be sure how safe the connection is.
Its so BS that we can't watch the BBC here, every country pretty much can watch it online but us. Ten is just ridiculous, they got so much feedback about it too, I know last season their facebook exploded with complaints about the advertising.

The thing that really gets me is when the commentator says "we will take this opportunity for a break" When literally nothing has happened to create and opportunity, just say "we need to take a break". Its small but annoys me haha.

We haven't had BBC coverage for a few years now. Sky have the exclusive rights to every race with the beeb only getting to broadcast live a handful of races a year.

Elsewhere it's not too great either. In Asia it's usually broadcast on Star Sports or ESPN and they've got even more ad breaks than Ten and often use their own commentary teams who are nowhere near as well equipped as Sky.

Sky's coverage is definitely the best but it comes at a price. everyone back home cracked the shits as they are a subscription service unlike the Beeb's glorious socialist free-to-air.

Yep sky is the best but I'm not paying for it.
What got me last race though was the safety car, they had a good 10laps behind the car and only had one as break. Like shit can't they have 3 and cut down on the in race breaks..

Its so frustrating. But hey it's not a massive loss, it would be nice having no ads but it doesn't annoy me enough to justify paying for it.

There are very easy alternative ways of watching the sky sports coverage. Just sayin.
If you're talking proxies, which ones? I've had absolutely no luck getting a proxy that will let me stream from Sky's Pay Per View site. To add insult to injury, because I've got a British iTunes/App store account, the last update on Apple TV gave me a shiny new Sky Sports link on the homepage. The damn thing is locked to UK ISPs however (although that didn't stop the cunts from taking my money for a 24hr pass)

Patrick Head told Rob Smedley to shut the fuck up and stop ragging on Force India, or words to that effect. Probably a guy you'd take advice from I reckon.
Has anyone seen the demo where Berger drove his old Ferrari and Vettel drove last years car together around the A1 ring? Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
