F1 Fanatic

I know theres a large number of Aussies on here and with the next round of F1 in Japan being the same weekend as the Bathurst 1000, it will leave many of us with a difficult dilemma; Do we watch the closing hours of Bathurst and miss the F1, do we miss the last laps of Bathurst and watch the F1? Or do you try your best to watch both, flicking channels between the two?

Its a tough call. Whats everyone going to do?

No contest: F1

Haven’t watched the V8′s in years and can’t remember the last time I watched Bathurst. Used to follow it a lot 10+ years ago when it was good. I like Ambrose though and root for him in NASCAR

Both. Watch the end of Bathurst and then press play on my recorder to watch the F1.

How do you watch F1 with standard free-to-air?

I turn the television on and suffer through the morons that call themselves commentators. Australia is yet to convert entirely to digital HD transmissions; the federal government is bringing them in by 2012, but I don’t have it yet. I don’t have enough money and I pretty much only ever watch the Grands Prix, Glee and NCIS, which isn’t nearly enough to justify the expense.

@nik – Sorry I meant non-digital!

It will be F1 for me. Haven’t really watched V8 Supercars for years now, especially since it moved to Channel 7 it’s just gone down hill IMO.

I don’t know about Tasmania or in the country, but here in SA OneHD also runs simultaneously on One Digital as a standard definition feed. Not that it makes a difference to F1 as it’s all in SD anyway, but you should be able to get One in some form with a digital reciever in your TV or a set top box at the very least.

Prisoner Monkeys, I sympathise with you, my friend.
