Not sure. May have some new faces.
I like SkyF1 for 3 hours of un-interrupted coverage...

Flow Fox premium is 100 TT. Might just use that money for more internet bandwidth.
I can suffer with the 2 min delay than pay that money..

I hate skyf1...the Hamilton bias is unreal.
The aforementioned race where vettel cut through the field was basically ignored with them constantly talking about Hamilton and showing him alone up front.
The US coverage at the very least has better insight and less bias with Hobbs and Matchett.

Hobbs has a clear bias towards Lewis.

The US coverage has way too many commercials. Even with the split screen it sucks.

Guys, how can I go back to watch a race? Is there any particular addon in Kodi that you could recommend for that?

Anyone planning to go to a race? Im looking at the US and Mexico GP. Possibly both if I get the schedule right.


Def worth going. Did it last year and it’s an amazing experience. Grandstands are overrated imo...find a good spot at one of the faster corners for practice/quali and an overtaking point for the race.

Yeh, best is to torrent the race after a day or 2. I download most of the races when I'm in another country and can't get good internet for streaming.

So for the Australian Grand Prix there is going to be 3 DRS zones instead of the usual 2. More chance of overtaking hopefully.

DRS is a load of bull imo. Makes everything predictable and easy.

Would probably be worse off without it in the current configuration.

Agreed...but let’s be real, the current configuration is a load of BS also.
Last year was my first race, and I couldn’t help but wonder how much better it was in the V12 era 2 decades ago when I started watching.

Using Mobdro - SkySport F1 right now but occasional "sticking" can be annoying.
Thanks for broadcast alternatives guys.

Who's up? I've got it nice and clear from vipbox Link 3 for SkyF1. Someone's also sharing it via live video on Facebook. Not sure of the language though

That is interesting... You can make up time in the pits under a virtual safety car
