Then we have this weeks GP, live and 10pm, telivised at 12 because of Big Brother of all god damn shows... Only this year have they started showing Quali, and its not live and it is bearly advertised of when its on, usually late at night too.

It really is making me angry now. I have left a complaint on the networks forum, but I know it wont be noticed.

I want our local pay TV to buy the rights from ITV away from 'channel 10'. If they do all races will be live aswell as qualifying.
Sadly F1 isn't very big relatively outside of Europe. There are fanatics around the world... Just not enough of them to justify the cost.

What will make things even worse is that they want to do night races to better suit the Europeans! Thats even worse for us, because the races that were in my timezone will no longer be!

On our pay TV, the races and qualifications are all live, taken from ITV.
