Now i really hope these thunderstorm stay away from my house just go there in Sepang. :lol:
 
I can't even sleep...I'm now obsessed
With F1...just really dont want to see a mclaren in victory lane!

I agree, but there isn't a victory lane. This isn't Nascar/Indycar.
 
If someone who understands the UK F1 Television situation is here...

So I know that it's all broadcast on Sky, and that half the season is on BBC, but are the races on BBC just the Sky version, or is the BBC team doing the presentation and commentating???

Will I get my fix of Eddie Jordan and David Coulthard this year, or is all hope lost?

BBC does their own version still, yes.
 
The BBC take the footage from Sky and add their own commentary to it. They do not supply any extra footage of their own. They can't - as the primary broadcaster, Sky are the only ones allowed to brings camers to a race.
 
Come on KL, give us rain.
 
Looks like i can't watch this race. Damn thunder. :(
Another big thunder and i'm off.

Awesome, do you know who the commentators will be? (I assume Martin Brundle won't be commentating for BBC.)

Sky doesn't bring cameras to the track, everyone in the world gets the same feed from Formula One Management.
 
dudedo

No, the commentators are Ben Edwards and David Coulthard.

Ben Edwards and David Coulthard
 
This thread is for discussion of the actual race. If you want to discuss the broadcast arrangement, please look here. We don't need a new discussion on who is broadcasting what and when every time there is a new race. Especially not fifteen minutes from the start of the race.
 
"Well, that's always interesting to know.."

Oh Martin!
 
Good to see Jackie Stewart wearing the tartan trousers once again.

The rain!
 
Haye didn't glass him, phew, dodged that bullet
 
Rain is coming. Felipe will be needing a white visor and Rob to comfort him.
 
Seems to be fairly light at the moment.
 
Just had a CRAZY F1 dream. All were driving supercars, Schumacher was in the lead with a RUF CTR2, followed by a LP670 SV. :dunce:
 
Yay. Rain. This light drizzle will makes things interesting (slippery), just hope it doesn't pick up; I'm sure race control will be quick to call out the safety car if there's a downpour.
 
De La Rosa just proved HRT's a joke.
 
This is going to be interesting.
 
I'm calling it.

Button to lead out of turn two.
 
I'm gambling on Schumacher.
 
Check out the spray!
