    Not even sure I'll see the end of the race as I'll have to catch a plane.

    ...but whatever happens I'm sure I'll be able to read up on it on here. On the 78+ pages of controversy ;)

    It'll be just a matter of picking the right description after the race:
    Alonso <cheated> <was glorious> <is still an ass> <better than the rest>
    MS <washed up> <got lucky> <dominating> <back to form> <out to lunch>
    Vettel <had the best car> <has IT> <was just lucky>
    Webber <is an idiot> <wasn't even there> <is now the team leader at RB> <is DA man>
    Nico <bested MS> <should have MS let go by> <who is Nico?>
    Hambone <undeservin champion> <made the best out of a bad car> <showed again why he is better than Alonso> <chump>

    I'm a little lost! Is the BBC broadcast in Switzerland? Or do you just plan on watching it online? Which in-case you don't know, you need a UK IP address to be able to watch the BBC streams on their site.

    Yup, they got BBC and ITV on the Swiss cable.

    Thanks again.

    That's too much encouragement...so I have to keep going:

    Massa <still no balls> < eternal #2> <owns this track> <is back to his 2007 speed> <will be resigned by Ferrari> <will resign from Ferrari>
    Button <told you he has the golden touch with tires> <can't beat Hami> <2009 was not just the car> <2009 was all about the car>
    Heidfeld <a never was> <Renault still sucks> <hasn't had a chance to get used to the car> <still suffering from the flu> <is called Quick Nick for a reason>
    Kobayashi <still a Kamikaze driver> <Saubers made a big leap this year> <the new Senna> <the next DeCesaris> <clearly affected by the disaster at home> <trying to give his countrymen something to be proud of>

    I'm watching BBC live from Toronto Canada on the link now!!!

    When the races are on, they will keep adding links from all over the world - sometimes they'll have 10 - 20 links - I watched every race last year on the link above!!!

    You can also watch just about every major sporting event - even pay for view fights, at the same website free from anywhere!!!
