Illegal streams and BBC will have to do.

I can't justify an extra £22 when nothing but the F1 interests me. It's nearly doubling the price of the TV package.

Same sky/virgin can do one

I like how Sky are showing the shows on the channel, one entry for the pre-show one for the race so you can just watch the race and avoid the pre-show easily if you want to, I'll watch them both but its nice to split them

Sky need to send that bint Thompson back to the news channel. strawberry floating horrible banana split.

I've no idea why they tried to make a joke of her drink driving on that James Corden quiz show, like it wasn't a totally twattish thing to do

I'll wait till after a race weekend before judging the Sky Coverage but it's pretty annoying they've crippled the BBC coverage to lend it some credibility.

My friend's dad is a big F1 fan but doesn't have Sky so he's getting hooked up to Italian TV. It helps that he's Italian but that may be an (admittedly weird) option for some of you without Sky or VM. Pretty sure you pay a one-off fee and, I'm told, it's legal.

There's your answer.

Boom!

Both are horrible twatty banana splits.

Isn't that just Freesat?

Anybody with Freesat/Sky ( no F1 channel sub) can watch all the races live, just get a second LNB installed or point your dish to the Astra 92.E sat and manually tune in RTL.

Cannot wait for this to all kick off again

Really I thought rtl was encrypted.

Im ready

Can't wait for the F1 this weekend. So much more exciting for me personally now that Kimi is back.

I was just reading an article about Kubica driving a rally car, which is good, but reminded me what a shame it is that he isn't involved this year.

The buzz when I couldn't recognise the 9th one.. scrolled down and saw Kimi's name...

Just got my ticket for the F1 sorted for this weekend. Now I'm off to watch Senna to get me pumped.

So P1 starts in 5hrs (1:30am). If anyone has streaming links then please share.

It starts tomorrow, not tonight.

For some reason I thought it was Thursday today.

Amazing, isn't it.
