if Telenet offers practice sessions + GP2 & GP3 as well, I might consider it.

Otherwise, I won't pay nearly €30 per month just to watch 2 races and have a lot of additional crap channels I will never watch.

Knowing Telenet, they don't even know what GP2 and GP3 are.

Sporting telenet costs €16,45 and not €27,45 according to "mijn telenet" pages. Still too much for only qualifying and race. I wonder if they will always show the extra channels, when the GP's are in Europe or primetime they need the other channels for all the football they show.

Pricing varies depending on your level of involvement with telenet (only tv; tv and internet; tv internet and phone)

I'm okay for streams when it comes to practice. However, come qualifying and race, I prefer the 'tense tranquility' provided by my sofa and TV.

Only just realised it now after reading it, but Gary Anderson has been dropped from BBC coverage. Not really sure if thats a good or a bad thing

According to Gary he was dropped because the BBC felt his technical features & explanations were too complex, Despite the fact that was why he was popular amongst many BBC viewers.

He's now working for FOM.

Where can we see his work for FOM? Or is it just some segments for the season review dvd. What a waste then.

He did the driver parade interviews for the world-feed at Melbourne, Some were shown on Sky.

He was in the pit lane at Melbourne doing some sort of feature, No idea what or where it will be shown:

The FOM feed is what's shown at the track. Between sessions they regularly have little features; usually there's Bob Constanduros walking around the paddock or going on a track walk. So probably you won't see him very often.

I think he's also now writing for autosport(since Jerez testing I think seeing his tech analysis on there)

That explanation would indeed be strange. I'm pretty sure his tech analysis would be a complete boredom to the layman almost everywhere in the world, but, in UK, it seems common people(not tech instructed) like this kind of stuff

I just wonder how long untill pay tv takes over everwhere. In Spain and Brazil, as soon as there is no local driver on the grid, it will either go straight to pay tv or the FTA fee will reduce MASSIVELY. In Italy, even despite Ferrari, it is already like in UK(AFAIK). Germany for now is safe for obvious reasons but F1 doesn't seem to be that solid there either.

And that's why the series needs to bend over to the appeal of the day like this (false) "green F1" or gimmicks to push for a spicier show. After all, they got keep the series relevant and interesting to the idiotic casual viewer and the propaganda of the dominant corporations.

Gary Anderson is doing some stuff for the official F1 app as it now features more video clips.
