It was horrible. I tried watching FP2 and it was mostly 90 minutes of buffering. FWIW, the French, German, and Spanish language feeds were better than the English language feed, but even they had problems.
The in-car cameras worked fine, but who wants to watch an entire race on in-car cameras?
It looks like they didn't really have any idea how much bandwidth they would need before they went live with this thing. I do hope they can remedy that before tomorrow.
BTW, the replay of FP1 was perfectly smooth, so it's only the live stream that is having issues.
