    Rosberg could of won in China last year if Mercedes had put enough fuel in his car.

    From last year we really have no idea where the drivers were, other than that they were closely matched and Rosberg squeaked it on points. This season will show whether they are both good, both mediocre or both poor.

    I watch it from here. Don't know about repeats unless they repeat it on the Sky F1 Channel.


    EDIT: They are repeating practice on it at the moment. Do not know if it is scheduled or just on a loop.

    That's the stream I've settled on. They just show the SSF1 channel whenever it's broadcasting so you get everything Sky viewers get on the main feed (i.e. excluding all the red button content) and obviously not in HD. They had a choice of streams for FP2 this morning and I switched to the one from 'Londoner' - higher quality sound and video plus he helpfully switched to in car shots on his red button whenever the adverts came on. That disappeared once FP2 had finished, though.

    Yes that is the one I used as well. I have watched loads of football matches streamed from 'Londoner' and they are very reliable and hardly ever go down, and if they do then they are back up very quickly.

    Not sure what to do sleep wise, didn't get up until 10 this morning as a result of being up til half 3 last night so I won't be able to sleep even if I want to.
