    Nothing but weird noise for audio from the time the drivers got into the
    green room before the podium here in Florida.

    Nothing after that but ads, no podium, champagne or interviews here.

    Gave up in favor of football.

    Here they tried to return to the feed at least twice but got buzz for audio and dumped to ads.

    Just terrible....there had to be at least 15 min of commercials and less than 30 seconds of coverage after the checkered flag. Understand the audio issue, but why show more commercials ??? Don't they know the broadcast is better without listening to the screaming Aussie fatboy !

    Wow! Just, wow! :(

    Maybe someone should forward this link to these clowns?

    I'm certain many folk would happily pay a reasonable amount for the Sky coverage.... Sorry to keep on, but I didn't have an ad from before the formation lap till long after the ceremonies and their guys are in the pitlane BS'ing about it.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    I suspect that they're well aware. There was a half azzed apology when the finally returned.

    It's not like NBCSC is free either. NBC is but the majority of F1 in the US is pay TV.
    If I could get the British HD feed on my TV I'd go for it. On the iPad it's not worth it.

    I can accept "technical difficulties" on occasion - **** happens. But delaying (& switching it seems!) the podium/anthems etc is really poor.

    I'm a little disappointed I can't Airplay it to the big screen too - The feed quality is there but I'm far happier just watching on the iPad - But then it's just me and this pixel burner on the desk..... ;)

    I'm feeling sorry for myself for having my TV and audio in storage. The 50 in the rental seems tiny and sounds tinny.
    Damn I'm spoiled.

    I noticed Michelle beadles name on the info for the show. I was kinda excited to see a new (cute female) face.

    Wonder why her name was on there.
