    Are they just delaying until after the baseball game? There's still 7 innings to go. Ugh

    The F1 app states it doesn’t start until then (another hour from now) I think ESPN just got their times off......ridiculous

    They screwed the time up, FP3 doesn't start for another hour but all the streaming schedules said it should have started at 6:55 pst.


    So lame. Anyone have a contact at ESPN they can ***** to? :confused:

    Not even college teams finish 7 innings in an hour. Don't count on them making their 10:55 airing time.

    ESPN screwed the time up. Not only did they put FP3 on an obscure channel that I've never heard of but they posted a scheduled time that is one hour before the event starts.

    When F1 was on NBC, I could always watch a streaming version of practice, quali, and the race after the event had taken place. Which was especially useful for the GPs that take place in the middle of the night. I doubt that this is available with EPSN.

    The time wasn't changed. It's suppose to start 2pm local which is in 50mins time. They just had the V8Supercar race.

    The V8Supercar race was started under safety car and the race before the OZ GT Championship was finished under safety car... so it's still wet o_O

    So I turn on my recorded practice session on ESPN2 and what do I get? A college baseball game.

    These people are a complete joke.

    Thats because practice 3 is on ESPN News channel. Qualifying is later on ESPN 2.

    I'm on ESPN news. It says they delayed it. Its supposed to start in 5 minutes. But my recording was going to end at that time.

    Looks like what I feared is true. Some game runs over and they will delay F1 as the lowest priority.
