Default Australian Formula 1 Coverage.

Hello,

Firstly, I appreciate that some people find F1 boring, but I dont, each to there own. But I was wondering what kind of F1 coverage you get in Australia, either on network tv or Sky, do you get the UK BBC1 coverage? And is it possible to watch it live on the BBC1 website, or is this blocked somehow for some reason?

On another note, can you use the BBC iplayer in Australia?

Thank you,
Paul.

Is F1 still going? I thought it was about to disappear up it's own arse in a torrent of cheating, scandal and corruption.

Yes, thats what I thought would happen, but like english football (that I dont watch), it carries on regardless.

One HD (just a spin off of Channel Ten) do pretty much wall to wall coverage of F1. All the qualifying etc. And the commentary is by Martin Brundle and the other guy.

Well that is good news, I was hoping to the BBC coverage, by the way, do you mean BBC HD? I dont even get that in the UK yet!
