If the FIA ran rugby, this match in Wales would have been postponed because the grass is a bit slippery.

good times when V8S race happened after F1 and we could watch F1 at midnight

Ya.

It was damn annoying staying awake until 5 AM for nearly nothing.

To all brazilians: No coverage for neither Q2 nor Q3 today. Gotta look for streaming.

And the qualifying session wil be in a perfect hour here, 9pm this Saturday. :thumbsup:

I simply love Australian GP, one of the best If not the best GP in the year.

I just hope Sportv will broadcast that, Globo won't for sure. I love Australia too, since the good old days of Adelaide and it's .30 timezone, it was so nice when the season ended there, I really miss those days and Melbourne is great too, Australia is such a nice country. I just don't like Bernie's idea of placing the race so late in the afternoon, if you have any problem the natural light will fade away and well we saw the results of that in the Qualifying. Maybe that will make them change it a bit for 2014.

In the ideal World, Globo should respect fans and broadcast it live, but I'm sure they won't. Imagine, 9pm they're showing their prime time soap opera....it's really unlikely they would drop it for Formula One live. So, Sportv MUST broadcast it live, they simply MUST, it's their duty! There's no excuse once Sportv belongs to Globo network, so unless something unexplained happen, they'll show Qualifying live. They have three f*cking channels, Sportv 1, 2 and 3...impossible not to show F1 live. But we never know...

About the race, Australian GP is perhaps the only GP that I'm willing to watch live at 3 am....the other GPs like Malaysia, China and similar, I'm not, it's not worth staying awake to watch it live, NO WAY.

After the advent of race download, at a much better video, sound and commentary quality than the brazillian live broadcast. I didn't even wacth some of the 9AM euro races live. When I usually wake up much later on Sundays.

I've saw in Facebook some informations about Sky Sports from UK showing eveyrthing live and also the 1999 race as a preview for the qualy. Now it's just a matter of finding a streaming.

Same here. Downloading the race with the UK coverage has been much better than sacrificing a Saturday night just to wake up early for a race with a considerably poor local coverage.

Indeed, the 1999 race is about to start on Sky Sports F1.
