I'm an F1 nut , so I hope this helps folk...





Those of you with "small" SKY dishes that can get Sky news ( but NOT BBC1) - try to go to channel 503 - News 24 - it is a VERY strong signal



after 5 seconds - when the blue and white channel info bar disappears press the red interactive button..



You'll find a dedicated F1 channel and can watch bits you missed and many LIVE things..



I don't KNOW if it will carry the LIVE GP, but it might.. certainly worth checking out





If all else fails you can always ASK for a free trial of my VPN service for Sunday ;)

Does that help for F1 MM ? Who has a live internet feed of it even if you have a UK IP address ?



Thanks in advance

Thanks for that MM, unfortunately when I press the Red interactive button all I get it the text screen and even when I go to multi screen there is still no option for F1.

Dear ErolZ



if you have a live fed for F1 in English, please post it - if you THINK I was promoting - well YES, I was in a VERY small way..



I was suggesting how folk can GET F1 as a fan .. I wasn't going to charge.. ;)



If I have misunderstood you - I apologise..





GO Jenson - you deserve the fairy tale ;)

Yeah you have misunderstood me MM.



I have a vpn service that gives me a UK IP address.



What I do not have is knoweldge of anyone who is providing a live feed of F1 over the internet for those that have a UK IP address.



I though you were suggesting having a UK IP address via a vpn, would allow you to watch the F1 ? If so where (which tv site - certainly bbc are not providing such as far as I can see. I can get the radio 5 live audio feed but not video).

Dear Rigsby re msg 2



I'm from Co.Down, N.I, but I have spent a large part of my life in and around Cheltenham, and the Severn Vale.



Did YOU kill the Bear ? ;))



Which team... ? Well I don't follow a TEAM.. but I certainly don't want Ferrari to win )



I hope Kimi will excite us this year.. I have feeling Lewis is going to be learning how Jenson has felt for a few Years..



I want Jenson to win in a one- two with Rubens - crafty Richard Branson !!

If you mean "life feed" as "watching the GP live", then I don't know anything about that. But if I understand "live feed" correct, then you can visit http://www.formula1.com, the official website.

Thanks again MM



Both working fine. I didn't really realise that there were such services outside the ones provided by the channels themselves (bbc iplayer etc), so thanks.



Both seem workable and comparable quality to iplay (live not download - download still best quality)



Well internet connections willing thats me set for the gp tomorrow

Hi Coffer, re msg 28



"Excellent post MM, this BBC sports menu is the dogs! "



) Pleased it works for you.. are you in Cyprus - and if so what size dish.. I've been saying for ages that a SKY HD box on a GOOD 1.8m in "TRNC" will give you far better UK TV than anything else on the market..



You just gotta know how to get the best from it ;)



This will work on ALL SKY boxes .. it's just that most equiv HD signals are STRONGER..



The interactive stuff from BBC is from a stronger satellite than BBC1-4 / ITV etc



Enjoy !

Thanks MM,

I have a 1.8m off set installed by Mustafa (Iceman) I'm trying to find an HD Box. I now have 2 digi boxes and two Sky+ boxes. Be opening a shop soon!



Thanks again just watching final score now, having a ball!
