    It appears that Foxtel has now secured the rights to F1 in Australia. The deal will be similar to the BBC/Sky deal with only half of the races being shown live on free to air television via Channel Ten. At least they will all be available in HD now. I hope that they will be ad-free. This costs AUD$600/yr (add $120 for HD). Initial setup costs are AUD$150, but this can be haggled down to normally $75.

    I am a huge fan of Webber and am very disappointed to see him get the 10 place penalty for his 3rd infringment. As a big critic of the nanny state mentality I think Webber was not only getting a lift back with his good mate Alonso, but that he was giving the big two fingers up at the establishment. I remember watching that Mansell / Senna interaction as a kid and miss it in this day an age.

    That said, did anyone see the GP2 cool down lap from Race 2 in Singapore. Leimer t-boned Rossi hard. Now imagine if someone had been sitting on that sidepod. I shudder to think of the carnage that would have caused.

    So, rules might be rules, but they exist for a reason…

    “Video cameras, still cameras with lenses exceeding 10 inches in length or detachable lenses of any kind, audio recording devices and tripods; no video recording will be allowed”

    Is it normal to not allow video cameras??? I mean seriously!
