    Does anyone have a link for the live feed online? The old link I saved doesn't work.

    Well I did some research for anyone else wondering and it looks like ITV has blocked any computers that are not in the UK from accessing the live feed. After reading about TV taxes and fees and blah blah blah turns out you have to get very lucky with a proxy to even view the stuff! Oh well Guess live timing will have to do I'll just close my eyes and imagine the cars going round the track.

    I don't think ITV does 3rd practise so next session is qualifying.

    ITV only blocks you if you goto their actual website(outside of UK). So I mirrored the player to my site and still works like a charm, www.coresworld.net/F1

    I have a list of other mirrors on my site as well, incase a site goes down you always have a backup :)

    Thanks guys! I won't have internet or cable at my new apartment until the 14th so this is my best option to catch the race at an internet cafe. Unfortunately without internet at home I completely forgot about the tipping site and just missed it by ten minutes :(

    I set up my browser to access the internet through a proxy server in the UK, then I went to the ITV site and was able to watch the live feed. BTW anybody know if accessing the web through proxy servers poses any security risks?

    It should actually be safer to browse with a proxy than using your own IP address. Google it and read up some and it will explain how the proxy works and why it can be better.
