Whatever way you look at it, basically Liberty do not have a worthwhile product to market at present at least. This venture is going to cost a king's ransom to get up and running with no foreseeable profit to be made.

looks like Liberty didn't get the 1714 memo that the Spanish had been defeated, and no longer rule over Belgium |

Thought you might like to see how we watched live coverage at the track-side - Silverstone GP 1985.

I have an account with Formula1.com and I just got an e-mail saying, if I sign up to the F1 TV Access package I will get 10% off, which translates at £0.86 per race.

Already signed up, cheaper than adding ESPN to my streaming service and I don't watch much else they offer and no DVR on ESPN channels on SlingTV it seems. 90 bucks US all in full season, already watched the Bahrain GP and great quality on the laptop so I'm thinking money well spent here with on demand replays.

So did anyone get the chance to give it a try? I tried to watch the first 30 minutes of FP1 and the stream spent most of the time initializing and buffering. Just an issue on my side or a general problem?

Same here. Onboards seemed to be better than the general feed but not great eitehr.
Teething issues, I hope. |

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. |

I think I have read that the "right" way to do this is to not go it alone, but to partner with someone who already has experience and is already streaming a large amount of content. My guess is that if they are having problems now, it may be a long road ahead to get it straightened out. Lots of "on the job training" and "school of hard knocks" going on. Richard |

the worst part is, here in Belgium, it uses the rtbf-commentary. so basically, you pay F1 for what rtbf provides us for free. shame.

I tuned in to FP2 for only a short period of time this afternoon and it was s lot better here too. The stream started pretty much straight away and didn't buffer. Let's hope the race will look like this as well... I guess qualifying will be the first proper test for the service. |

It's 170 euros per year in France? I had an email for this streaming too. Glad I didn't take it then..
