    The cars look nice for a second when they're directly in line with the camera. Then they turn... ugh

    I've got the Sky Sports feed streaming on the laptop here and I'm really surprised to see these team video summary things they keep inserting, as well as them cutting to Brundle in the pits. I thought Bernie was extremely protective of his world feed pictures and insisted that TV companies weren't allowed to put their own stuff in over the world feed (with the exception of Speed in the US who he's always given a dispensation to) once the 5-minute sting was shown. Seems like Sky must have slipped him an extra brown envelope to turn a blind eye! ;)

    Having taken a good look at the on-board shot we've just seen from the Red Bull, sure enough, the audio is out of sync on Setanta again! :mad:

    I thought they finally got those issues sorted out by the end of last year, seems they've forgotten how to get it right again and it's back to square one as we were last year. :rolleyes:

    lol, yeah I tried IE and FF and they are both the same. I had a lot of problems with it last year too, was hoping they would sort it out this year because I use it a lot.

    Very impressed with the Sky coverage so far!

    At my Dads watching it; he has Sky Sports, i don't.

    Went on to Sky.com this evening to set up his account, signed up to Sky Go so I'm going to register my own PC at home tomorrow as the second device and l should be able to to watch the season at my own place for free!

    I'm not liking it. It feels like a very NASCAR-esque style of presentation, cutting away from the on-track action for an interview or feature or report or whatever. I think it's a good idea but it would be much better if it was in a small picture-in-picture box in the corner of the screen rather than cutting away completely from the world feed. At least that way you wouldn't miss any on-track action.

    If they cut away like that during the race, there's going to be complaints galore from a lot of the Sky viewers, I'm sure.
