Wow, that's very strange. I have been on it a couple of times and I can see it. No idea they had such a system.

UK viewers only, and probably a good thing too..

Yep, Suzi Perry's here. She must be ancient by now!

by **Richy59** Sat 16 Mar 2013 - 15:48

It wasn't, but they waited about too much and it got too dark.

by F4H mikem Sat 16 Mar 2013 - 18:36

Correction: NBC Sports Network will show the remainder of qualifying from the Australian Grand Prix at 12:30 a.m. EST Sunday morning. Live race coverage begins one hour later at 1:30 a.m EST.

1999 Aussie GP on Sky.

It's a travesty that drivers like Eddie Irvine and David Coulthard had to endure God Save the Queen during their moments of elation...

Surely the FIA could have made exceptions for such a special case as the United Kingdom?

Ach...

Zytek show interest in F1s new-for-2014 engine regulations.

http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/zytek-interested-in-f1-s-2014-engine-rules/

I'm personally quite a big fan of Zytek (the original A1GP car sounded a beast!), so this is good news that F1 is attracting companies like this.

by Ax4x Kane Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 12:37

Hoping Mercedes would've performed better. Unlucky for Rosberg.

Don't particularly care for Raikkonrn. Would've much rather seen Massa win. Maybe next time...

by nickyf1 Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 12:53

I was quite pleased to see Raikkonen win, he's definitely part of the 'upper tier' of drivers in the field (Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel and Raikkonen), and when was the last time we had drivers with such equal talent up against each other?

Raikkonen's victory indicates that this season is gonny be a beazer.

Raikkonen is awesome.
