No more live race telecasts.
No more HD, delayed on ten on a Sunday night on SD.
I implore you to email, ring, post on 10 forums, whatever, showing your displeasure at this decision.
I am livid - they have long promoted themselves as the home of motorsport etc, and have now fucked fans.

So looking at next week. All times below in AEST (Brisbane)
Race times in AEST (from www.f1.com)
Practice 1 Fri 17:00
Practice 2 Fri 21:00
Practice 3 Sat 18:00
Qualifying Sat 21:00
Race Sun 22:00
Telecast times (taken from www.tvguide.com)
No P1-P3, no surprises
Qualy: 8:30, Channel One
Race: 9:30, Channel Ten (fucking netball is on One instead of F1)
So this race is live for Brisbane, except on an SD channel instead of HD...thats pretty shit.
As for Perth, obviously Race times are the same.
Qual: 6:30pm, on One
Race: 9:30pm, on Ten (Bend over Perth boys, you just got fucked over)
Adelaide is the same deal as Perth, Live qualifying, delayed race to be telecast at 9:30pm local time.
Thats pretty fucked....
I survived the patio flooding catastrophe of 2012.
Bahrain is live in Melbourne but on regular Ch10. Anyone know what the reason for this is?
Surely F1 brings more audience than Netball. And this is commercial TV, they arnt gonna make a stupid decision unless there is a reason.

I've been racking my brain trying to understand this. Maybe they are trying to get a higher viewership hence the reason for putting on ten? What about foxtel people, can they get One through the free to air arrangements?
Maybe there aren't that many people (still!!) that have STB's and therefore can't get One?
I dunno, confused!!

They have pulled the pin on OneHD financially cause it is sending them broke.
IT's what I thought might happen but TJ linked me to the fact that they already own another two seasons of F1 rights.. This is their answer.
I sent an email yesterday, got no response, going to resend it today.

KEEP CALM.
new theory: they just don't want to commit to showing Bahrain live in case it gets delayed due to protest/bloodbath/uprising
Fucks.
Going back to SD means i might as well stream it and avoid the ads.

Is there any way to get sky f1 in Aus?
so they schedule the F1 start at 10pm in the program...
"the biggest fatcunt" runs overtime (as it always does)...
at 10pm 100,000 people (at a guess? how many people in australia watch F1?) tune in to watch the F1.
Nielsen stats now show an extra 100,000 people watching the biggest fatcunt
Channel ten sells more ads during the biggest fatcunt based on inflated figures
??
Surely the move to SD is all about increased audience potential overall?
Bloody wanker Murdoch. OneHD used to be great.
They're protecting Foxtel.

How can I stream F1 to my tv and bypass dumbarse ch10
Ask Forg- he has a cheap simple method.
Oh yeah this is also thanks to all you floggers who think the anti siphoning rules are shit.
go to dick smith.
by a VGA splitter lead and an audio lead.
plug telly in to pooter, select the correct channel on telly.
click full screen on stream
done.
cost me $45
if you have HDMI on both telly and pooter, that is even easier.
.... because every driver experiences the destructive potential of the effortless surge of power available through the smallest of body movements.
Dr Hoon.
DrNick is king!!!! No, Mark Webber is now! Long live the king!
was after a site that offers reasonable quality streaming of live F1.
Nice to see that others have realised what i was pointing out in the China thread on sunday....

I didn't know what you were on about in that thread for 3 reasonsNice to see that others have realised what i was pointing out in the China thread on sunday....
1. I was 6 beers + half a bottle of wine down
2. I was looking at BNE only (which is live)
3. Channel Ten told me it would be live all year so I stupidly believed it.
Apologies if it sounded like I was having a crack at you!
Channel 10 bringing F1 back to 2005.
You would have thought with amount of ad breaks during the Melb GP it would of paid for the season.
I think Fraud could be on the money about Bahrain coverage. They probably thought it wasn't going to happen so they didn't commit any resources to the race.
TJ: vipbox.tv lol.
edit: fixed
