I might try this, hope the app supports Chromecast.

I could be wrong, but I don't think it does. 25fps too from what I read, bloody awful, despite being 1080p.

Just found out that Channel 4 will not be allowed to do the grid walks or interview drivers in the media Pen!! I had resigned myself to the fact that I'd have to settle for the highlights but even those are going to have less content than last year!

For me anyway, F1 just isn't watchable in highlight form. There's a certain magic to watching the grid form, seconds from lights out, that doesn't translate into replays.

That's ridiculous. Will this be the same for there live race too? What's the harm in them doing grid walks or interviews in the pen not like they will be live now. Maybe there is some good from it do. It means they can do the actual race better maybe.

I agree its never as good when its highlights and add breaks don't help either.

Lads, the F1 TV service, is it worth my while getting?

I live in Vancouver, so I don't really get up to watch the races so I would be watching the replays etc. I can sort out a VPN if needs be and can set it to the UK - https://f1tv.formula1.com/en/content-schedule

Don't really enjoy trying to find a crap youtube replay the next day, and this seems affordable.

Anyone?

From reading on reddit, the payment method has to match the region and so on, that that could be that for me.

As mentioned above you can sign up for the German region with an N26 account (German IBAN) , you could be sorted for the second race, if you open account now.

I still have F1 HD included as part of my HD pack but I believe that deal is not available any more.

I don't understand why sport organisations sign up to these type of exclusive deals, well, I do, it's business, but surely they must realise the long term negative impact this must have on their sport??

MotoGP on BBC averaged 1.3 million viewers. On BTSport, a measly 110K. It has to have a negative impact over the years.

I've been wondering how i have SkyF1HD and not been paying for it, and i've been afraid to call them up looking for a new deal without them cutting it off :pac:

If you barter a discount from them on your current package you should keep F1 (best confirm that with them and record the phonecall in case of disputes) but if you drop the HD pack or drop down to a lower bundle you may lose the F1 and can't get it back with a new HD pack sub.
