Having no interest in Foxtel, I would reluctantly pay $25 for a sport only package but will not buy a basic package just so that I can then add on a sport pack.

Unfortunately I am 4.27km from the exchange so my internet speed is cough meaning Fox Go is a no go for me.
#51 IIRC does give a BBC link so I will try that.

Better option is VPN with UK presence and BBC iPlayer, as you can stream live as well as using for catch-up TV.

Except BBC has the same split with Sky/BBC so you only get half the races...

If you know people with Fox, there's always FoxtelGo

For me, it's not so much how to watch (as I can when I want), it's that it is boring ... fastest machine wins, not necessarily the best driver.

A bit like the Schumaker dominant years (although he was certainly the best driver of his era), I stopped watching then as well.
 
Well it seems as though I have struck it lucky. Spoke to my ISP and they have altered my profile to give me some more speed. It has been done progressively with monitoring my connection for drop outs. I can now get Go!
 
I think the Spanish producers were not ready for the start. Very poor footage.

Erratic coverage of the race in general - instead of chopping and changing cars in view, stick to a couple for a lap or two and then change. :evil:

Yeah I thought the coverage at the start was a bit ordinary.

But I am lucky to be watching it.. I had a flat tyre on the way home from mothers day dinner and had to watch pre-race on my phone while waiting for the tow truck!

It's not shown on One or Channel Ten anymore. Need NBN. :-|

Only half the races on one/ten with a 1hr highlights package on Mon night for non-live races (similar to the UK BBC/Sky split and the V8s this year)
 
Many i know do not watch F1 or V8 Supercars anymore as they refuse to get a Fox box, its outrageous the've been taken away from FTA, I'd imagine the advertisers would be asking questions too.
 
have to say that for Barcelona last weekend i got to watch the Foxtel coverage for the first time this year. was lucky enough to be at the first 3 races this year, and slept thru Bahrain whilst being a tourist in Seoul. Fantastic coverage! loved all the pre=race stuff. have previously streamed the pre and post , but this was just so easy. also want to say that the Fox coverage on HD of the V8's is also fantastic! worth every penny in my opinion, considering we watch motogp and Superbikes, then anything else. worth the money, FWIW, for our household anyway.

Have to agree with this (except the being at races part! lucky you!) For $60/month it's so worth it, I had V8's on yesterday, into MotoGP while streaming the Nurburgring 24hr.

Monaco next weekend...I love this type of year!
