stricktly come f1?

 

Neil Land? Have they made that name up. Where's Steve Air and Paul Sea?

 

Paul Sea is with sarah Bill....

sorry thats bad... ill grab my coat

 

Just signed up for unlimited internet so will be able to access any streams of races that are not shown on the BBC, only costs me £120 more a year rather than the £600 which would be lining the pockets of the Murdochs.

 

This is the sensible option isn't it. The only drawback is that streams will be of a far lesser quality than we've come to expect from the BBC team; but, since they're lost anyway, we should do all we can to watch F1 anywhere other than Sky!

Good move Thomsen!

 

Thanks Cosi, had to do something, can't tolerate the thought of next year's coverage as it stands.

 

The streams are sometimes pretty good. Sky football can be broken up due to ISP traffic etc. There are plenty of less used foreign stations to join though.

Dreadful weather up here in Lake District - never mind missed the riots and home late tomorrow....

 

Cream Pie in the face award this week:

 

riots at Silverstone anyone?

Is that a sarcastic thumbs up?

 

Of course, I do not want to fork out another 200 pound a year for F1.

 

I will be downloading the F1 torrents and I know from experience that bt will choke my band width so they can **** off as well, it is simple to change an ISP. I'm starting to feel ashamed of being british I live in Bristol and guess who owns the water I drink,,,,,,,,,,, the yanks, mind you it probably wont be long before that crim murdoch family get there grubby little paws on that as well.

 

As I can't seem to find an edit button before anyone spell checks me I meant their and not there

 

I have a lot of video sources, such as Races from 1980's to 2011 and Qualifying. It's an invite site where you have to get invited to able to get the torrents.

And it's been put down to avoid FOM detection like DarcyF1's site which was nearly sued due to Copyright Infringement, but it will be back for 2012 as the Site Founders told me.

 

Oops just found it but to late oh well

 

In that case if i may be so bold as to ask, when the time comes I would really appreciate an invite, cheers

 

Good news everybody! I've defected to the anti murdoch brigade. I've just done some sums, and watching the f1 on sky next year will cost me over £600! He's having a laugh if he thinks i'm gonna pay that much. Anyone know any good ISP'S? I've got mobile broadband on 3, and the amount of time it takes to do anything is ridiculous.

 

Stay away from BT. They restrict my broadband speed at peak times if I download over 100GB a month, which is all the time.
