Is there any way for someone outside of the UK to watch the races live?

I know it is very very early days but I am watching the times for the first session but it looks like there maybe some pace in these Subaru's.

FP1 Top 10
Ingram Neal Collard Sutton Tordoff Shedden Goff Cook Jordan Morgan The fastest Subaru was Turk's in 17th but only 0.955 slower which for a brand new car with development is pretty good in my book. |

Ingram fastest. Could this be the season he 'arrives'? Good to see Sutton up there as well. The scoobys are doing alright considering they've only just turned a wheel in anger

Interesting times from FP1 and FP2, but as always, take the running order with a pinch of salt.
However, in both sessions, a few managed to be under the 2015 pole lap time. Very nice that all 32 cars were on track and setting times. Only 27 made FP2 last season. Great to see Welch 1.5 seconds off the pace. In both 2014 & 15 he didn't even make qualifying and Wilmot finished 4.5seconds off the pole time. Wasted 2 years with their own engine there sadly. http://www.tsl-timing.com/event/161303/session/fp2trg |

congrats to Ingram for his maiden pole
but fear the Hondas will eat him alive Plato 23rd.. under the old system you could bet that he would have started from the pit |

Certain irony that both Goff and Jordan are behind the MG's...

And that Aron Smith has outqualified all the Scoobys in last year's car... Pleased for Ingram, hopefully he can use what he learned at the Rock and hopefully get the first win. Is he still engineered by Geoff? Great effort by Colin, seems his RWD experience is paying dividends as JP is down in 23rd |

Just back from Brands, a dam good day with some interesting results in qualy, the subaru's were slow and the whole field a lot closer than i expected, some good looking cars this year and a full grid on the short circuit will make all of the races very interesting tomorrow, weather today was strange with warm and sunny to start and cold and raining by the end. Hoping for warm sunny and dry tomorrow.

I think Colin's time was superb considering the lack of testing a seat time any of them have had, great effort by the whole BMR team just to get the cars on the grid, makes Turk's lap even more impressive.

Stunning lap from Tingram to get pole. Would be nice to have a first time winner - and a cracking lad - win the first race of the new season! Although I have Shedden 1st race in the predictor, so if he'd like to snatch the win then that'd be fine |

Totally agree with you. It would be very easy to be critical of BMR, especially when Aron Smith out qualified them all in last year's car.
But they've done superb to get all 4 cars on the grid in a limited time frame, especially when they only had a shakedown test recently in one car. That car will gain a lot of pace with time and development. Delighted for Ingram! Would love for him to win a race tomorrow. Also pleasantly surprised about the pace of Sutton and Cook in the MG's.

Interesting grid. Sutton looks a shoe-in for Jack Sears! Slightly disappointed at Simpson's position.

Well that marshal who ran across the track in front of the pack is a very very lucky man.
