This is terrible. Totally outrageous. Fans in the UK wanted coverage of the races and what happens? They are given it. Pah.

Question about who's paying for it is an interesting one. Do Sky Sports have a contract they didn't want to honour on their prime channels and needed somewhere to show it? Did they want to hold on to it in order to retain rights to Brickyard and maybe some others? Did NASCAR realise they'd got an audience over here for sponsors and couldn't get someone to pay for it? Who cares, it's on. |

Open Access 3 on a wide beam transponder, unlike the BBC channels which have their footprint very well limited to just the UK and RoI (however supposedly you guys get it really easily on cable). |

It is pants quality. Better than an internet stream though.
It looks like we won't get the ads though. When the US go for ads we still get the feed. At the moment it is the blimp. At a guess they are using the same feed as Sky did, so hopefully that means we still see the race when the US is in adverts. We don't get any team chatting at this point either.

Still happy with the quality at the moment? It is on live though, so that is OK.
Seeing all sorts of error messages I've never seen before. Picture quality does matter. Especially where television is concerned. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy it is on. However I am not happy with quality. |
