Missed The Race

Xpunk75 · 31 Jul 2005, 17:26 (Ref:1368359)

Hey guys I missed the race today and I live in Michigan. I checked speed vision and for some reason they didnt show the taped delayed at noon here. Their waiting 5 days from now to show it Agaust 5th. Is their any Canadian Channels or a chance that CBS will show it at a later time. Please let me know cause i was suppose to tape the race for my Dad and he is really angry at me for not getting up at 7:30 Am. Thanks guys.

Not much of a fan if you don't get up to watch it!

I was up late last night, any help here?

Bit harsh there.... don't forget not every fan is on our time zone that don't have to get up early....

Thanks buddy, I find it really strange that Speed Tv is going to wait till the 6th of next month to show the race again. Every race that has been shown in Europe this year early in the morning has been shown again later at night or at noon. Speed changed their line up again and messed everything up for me, because i never miss a race.

You see I've tapped almost every race since 1988 as a collection and I get really upset when i miss a race like this.

It was a light-hearted comment.

Although, I'd never miss a live Grand Prix whatever time it was on

Niether would I, but I can't help it now when I am racing that day, but I have missed races in the past by not hearing my alarm go off, these things happen.....

runshaw · 31 Jul 2005, 18:50 (Ref:1368410)

Im quite pleased I have never missed a race since 1997, because I was only 10 back then which shows how much of an addict I am!!

You can watch it in French at 11:30 p.m. on Channel 25 (TFO which is Cable 13 in Toronto).

I am sorry that you missed the race. I checked last night and noticed that Speed were only showing the race LIVE today so I had to get up at around 6AM, I think you will have to wait until the 5th to watch.

I missed it on purpose. Decided to go to the Zoo instead, more interesting than F1 nowadays

Armco Bender · 1 Aug 2005, 08:15 (Ref:1368802)

The race started at 12pm here and I managed 2 laps before I was snoring again,hopefully night racing will catch on in F1 then the races will be on at a civil time here.

I was waiting for a delayed flight so got to see it in Stansted airport lounge. Sadly that means I didn't arrive at my apartment until 1:00 am so I can sympathise with those who missed it due to timing.

Sodemo · 1 Aug 2005, 12:15 (Ref:1369080)

You didn't miss much.

**Peter Mallett** · 1 Aug 2005, 12:22 (Ref:1369087)

He missed JPM retiring.

He missed MS' defence for the first stint, then MS' struggle on worn tyres.

He missed Ralf putting in a great performance.

He missed Taku getting some points at last but possibly too late to save his career.

He missed a storming drive from Kimi trying to pass MS in the first stint.

So no, not much to see was there?

Kicking-back · 1 Aug 2005, 12:23 (Ref:1369090)

Peter, you missed the fact "The Monster" hates F1!

**Peter Mallett** · 1 Aug 2005, 12:28 (Ref:1369101)

No I didn't. I ignored it.

mabs_nsx · 1 Aug 2005, 14:13 (Ref:1369202)

I am probably one of the bigest F1 fans. I have never missed a race since the first race in 2003 when I became an F1 fan. I even sat through the extreamly boring 2005 US GP and it started at 1:30 Monday morning.

Sodemo · 1 Aug 2005, 17:19 (Ref:1369420)

It was just a boring race, like most of the Hungaroring offerings.
No overtaking, no dicing for position, dull in my book.

**Adam43** · 1 Aug 2005, 17:25 (Ref:1369425)

The Monster; next year remember to take a leaf out of Stranger's book. Try here.

I used to be like that 20 years or so ago.......

I forgot this one was on......

**Peter Mallett** · 1 Aug 2005, 18:38 (Ref:1369483)

But you can't miss an Audi "doing the do" for the fourth, fifth or is it sixth, year in a row?

Sodemo · 2 Aug 2005, 10:33 (Ref:1369990)

I hate zoo's more than I hate a boring F1 race
