    The top motorsports event in Australia kicks off at 00.30 local time, any Sky customers can watch it on MotorsTV now, as a UPC customer I have to trawl the net for a stream, one of the races of the year IMO, if you're bored or can't sleep, switch over!

    Those last... 30-40 laps - I can't even remember how long it was - holy hell.

    Almost fell asleep around the half five mark, last 15 laps gave me my second wind!

    Bathurst, not for the faint hearted, a real circuit.

    the race was tedious enough that they were showing the highlights during it!
    Highlights include an overtake and a lockup...

    I had this on in the background for half the day yesterday but just couldn't watch it, nothing happens for hours on end and the commentators go so over the top when someone brakes 5m later than normal. NASCAR is more entertaining.

    I'd suggest that you should stay away from Le Mans or any other endurance race in that case, I missed the last half of the race but waiting to get a full race reply, the last hour was supposed to be very good, but in the end it was 6 hours long, quiet periods will be expected.

    It's a fantastic track though.

    oddly I find that far more entertaining

    Far from it and I think that's part of the boredom factor of it.

    Really?

    Not being funny or anything but I think you are genuinely the first person I have ever seen/heard who didn't think it was a great track.
