Watching all the support races live and in HD is pretty mint. No ads this weekend either unlike the Aus GP weekend.

There's a one hour highlights package on channel 10 tonight for the V8's - 11.15pm - 12.15am.

Tomorrow on One at 8.30pm is another hour long highlights package.

One has an hour long highlights package of the F1 race on Monday night at 8.30pm too.


Should add - that's for Melbourne at least.

Wonder how long it will be until they realise it was a terrible idea and put it back on FTA.

For those of us that can't afford/see the value in foxtel you should at least be able to stream the races online, even for a small price per race/event.

I would have been perfectly happy to pay the $50/yr season pass to stream it online but $50/month for a TV package I will barely use is ****ed.

The crappy thing is if you live outside of Aus you can stream it for under $50 for the whole season.
But as we live in Aus it's $50p/m

I watched the highlights package on One today, wasn't bad only issue is avoiding hearing/seeing the results before hand..

Replay package on One last nite wasn't bad. Got to see both 25 lap races in full. Just no qualifying and pit lane waffle. Not such a bad thing..

Doubt i could put up with the blurry, Standard Def shit Ch9 serves up.

Was also good not having to listen to James Brayshaw. The subscription fee is worth that alone.

Watched the F1 highlights package, not a bad race compared to Melbourne and so much better without the 6 hours of Garbage ;)

Didn't like it.

Couldn't keep up with who was where due to missing laps.

Seemed like a good race though

I actually liked it as well, but I do agree with you Black, very hard to keep up with who was winning stratagy wise as the cars were all over the place. I think what made it good to watch was all the overtaking. I think I saw more overtaking in that race then I did for the entire season last year.
