F1 coverage online - help please!

I thought I was sorted this year with the BBC covering all the F1 stuff online, but it's for UK users only!

NUTS.

Have to start work at 7am tomorrow, and desperately want to watch the end of the race on my laptop.

Does anyone know where / who / how to do this?????

???? PLEASE ????

There should be a stream here for it tomorrow.

Generally you need a proxy server to be able to view it via the bbc website and such or use a generic stream of the internet if you can find one of good quality.

Last season I had a friend with a proxy server in the uk which was great however it is not available this season. As a result I have literally 5 mins ago resorted to purchasing the service from this crowd

http://www.ukproxyserver.co.uk/

I ran a free trial last night which was supposed to be available today until 1pm which I was going to use for the quallie this morning. However the trial worked great last night was not available this morning and I had to find a stream so I just bit the bullet and ordered the monthly package and we'll see how it goes. There are free proxies out there but I am no familiar with their reliability and being outside the uk/ireland this seems like a good option

Thanks Woden - pity I haven't a notion what you're on about, eh?
You've heard of "The Idiots Guide To ...."?
Well I need "The Complete Muppets Guide To ...."!!!

I just want to watch the F1, I don't need any other services, doesn't even need to be in English!

Any links to good quality streams?

mrmac, pm sent.

Mods, feel free to edit this post if you think it's infringing in any way (please don't ban me!

) but I just thought I'd mention www.justin.tv *NASCAR commentator mode*...... "for all your motorsport viewing needs!"
