How did this work out?, I am getting to absolutely hate Fox running a commercial break every 3 laps

Despite that it was a great race!

 

Same here!

 

If you don't mind the lack of HD it was awesome. NO commercials at all in the BBC broadcast. The feed is the same all over the world so get the same stuff everyone else see's. Brundle and Coulthard are there at the venue so get a little more of what it is like there. Their commentary is different too. Varsha, Hobbs, and Machett are very good but a different take on the same thing opens a new view.

Did I mention there are NO commercials.

 

If there are no commercials, when do you go to the bathroom and whatnot?

 

Yep....the BBC coverage does not have any commercials. And you can get it from lots of torrent sites afterwards if you wanted to.

I am usually not patient enough to wait and download the BBC coverage, but the few times that I have it has been a nice fresh look at the race.

 

Sounds like a winner! I have the site bookmarked an will give it a whirl for the Hungarian GP

 

I just want to know what the heck is a "whatnot" and why do you need a commercial for it?

 

I assumed it was a verb, describing what he did when he got to the bathroom - I suspect it's the same as **** but the ******* forum software doesn't ******* asterisk it out.

 

Definition of whatnot by Webster:
: any of various other things that might also be mentioned <paper clips, pins, and whatnot>

In my application it could mean anything from making a sandwich to a quicky with the missus. Yes, Formula 1 makes me hungry and hot. All at the same time.

 

:biggrin5:

 

If the link changes, I'll try to post an updated one on Sunday morning. No promises though, I'm out of town and may not have access by then.

What I usually do to find a good stream is to go to ustream.com, and search F1. The resulting stream almost never works, but in the commenting thing to the right of the stream there is usually a comment that has a link to a good streaming site for that race. Sometimes it's the site I link above, sometimes it's different.

I'll do my best to post a link by race's start.

Ugh allergies making post incoherent.

 

I love it. As Nico starts saying 270, 280, DC starts to tighten his shoulder straps. Good stuff.

 

I'm gonna go ahead and say: OVERSHARE. :eek6:

On a separate note: Awesome race! Looking forward to watching these guys duke it out around the Hungaroring.

 

US date moved to November 2012?

Better get those reservations changed...

No Turkey for you!

 

I was just chatting with on of my new clients yesterday and it turns out he is a huge F1 fan and he live 15 min from the track in Austin. He offered me use of their guest room for the event.

The Nov date works so much better in so many ways.

 

So how many MAers can we fit in one guest room? :devil:

 

I'd really rather not be in the room whilst you take care of "whatnot"... :eek6:
