mjstallard should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
The classic GP stuff is currently playing out on 301, although I dunno if this'll change over the next couple of days (I dunno what's scheduled to go out).

I didn't even know any classic GP stuff was on, has it been advertised?! I've just pressed my red button and there is nothing on but teletext and news. So where do I find the old F1 races that people have been talking about?

Have a look on channel 301 - it's showing there until 4pm (at the very least). Otherwise, you can watch online here:

Go to sports multiscreen then I think its currently option2 via Sky or red button, or channel 301/302 on Freeview.

I'm off out to a gig tomorrow night so I think I'll just stay up for the first session and watch it in a drunken haze.

See you on MSN Knowlesy.

I'll be watching every session live thanks to the BBC.

I'm going to have two TV's set up for the race so I can watch the World Feed and Onboard channel at the same time.

I definitely plan on watching the practice sessions. Here in Australia ONE will have coverage over all 3 days. Friday and Saturday coverage starts at 12:00 am and finishes at 7:00 pm (AEST), sounds promising!

Hey hiya,

MMMmmmmmmh, practice sessions....

You guys are hardcore if you watch all practice sessions. Would have done that a few years ago, but now I occasionally catch them as reruns and typically restrict my live watching to qualifying and race.

Although this time I might watch the first half hour or so of the first practice just to see them on track, and then hit the bed.

Couldn't see it mentioned in the thread yet, so for the benefit of the Aussie viewers the One HD (full) telecast from Friday to Sunday is replicated on SD Channel 12.

Ingsy should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I watched some of the Classic Australian GPs on 301 yesterday evening. The 1986 one I'd never seen (I was only 5 at the time!) and the changes between then and now are amazing:

The cars themselves. Nice big fat slick tyres, big wide wings, low to the ground with sparks coming up when going over bumps, sliding around some of the corners etc - make them look like "proper" racing cars. In car views show the drivers really struggling to control the cars. It looked more of a challenge back then. Plus, a proper gear stick - none of this paddle shift malarky business.

Safety - from the driver being ridiculously exposed with head bobbling about in the open, to the pits with mechanics just wearing trousers and a jumper - not even a mask! Plus seemingly lots of people meandering around the pit lane area, and no speed limit. Very different to today.

Murray Walker sounded exactly the same back then as he did commentating for ITV - the fact that his enthusiasm never dwindles is astonishing.

PS. How on earth did Mansell hold on to his car when that tyre went? I'd seen it on youtube or where ever, but to see it in the context of the race, seeing how far he went down the escape road just shows the speed he was travelling at.
