And Sunday morning is going to be lovely watching the race over the web with a bad feed... =o(

Last race I had to watch in Turkish as that was the only feed I could get with acceptable video... =o(

If FOX must make the money (= PM show) make the money twice and show it on SPEED live! PLEASE!!!

It is BERNIE that wants the first airings for some of the races to be on network, at "human" hours to reach a wider audience. It's not Speed, Fox that for money reasons does it. It is Bernie.

SInce he wants the first airing on network, live on SPEED will NEVER happen.

I'm geting up to watch Qualy at 8:00 am EST tomorrow . I hope that's what I get to see at that time .

Well, I hope that's a typo because if you tune in at 0800EST you will have missed the first hour. Quali is on at 0800EDT.

Sorry to be pedantic but this is all part of SPEED's problem. They routinely post schedules as "EST" when they mean "EDT".

No , it's not a typo , as I've always seen it listed as such . Eastern Standard Time , Central Standard Time , and so on . Whatever you call it , I (and SPEED) got it right this time .

I think Isaac lost you there, Dzu. Trust me if you watched the race at 8:00 it was 8:00 EDT.

The Eastern Time Zone of the Western Hemisphere falls mostly along the east coast of Northern America and the west coast of South America. Its time offset is UTC-5 during Standard time and UTC-4 during Daylight saving time.

The time observed in this zone in the US portion is called Eastern Standard Time (EST) when observing standard time; Eastern Daylight Time EDT) when observing daylight savings.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time

Time zone names typically change when DST is observed. American English replaces standard with daylight: for example, Pacific Standard Time (PST) becomes Pacific Daylight Time (PDT). British English uses summer: for example, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) becomes British Summer Time (BST). Abbreviations do not always change: for example, many (though not all) Australians say that Eastern Standard Time (EST) becomes Eastern Summer Time (also EST).

While we are at it anyone notice this from http://formula-one.speedtv.com/ ?

Wow... I didn't realize how dangerous it is to be incommunicado when someone changes scheduling, and I'm not here to update it.

Don't matter . I knew what I meant . I just hope I didn't confuse anyone else .

Speed doesn't care about you, doesn't care about I, doesn't care about anything.

Otherwize they would show Practice Live, Race Live as well.

Our media and politics are corrupted. Deal with it.

Be happy with what you have

Cheers!

The practice WAS LIVE! Speed would have shown it earlier.... but it hadn't happened yet. Practice is always live.

Speed does air their F1 races live.

I am sorry to differ with you but you are incorrect. Practice on Speed is shown on a time slip and is not live. It starts usually about 10 minutes late and by the end it is usually around 15-20 minutes behind live time.

DOH!! You guy's won't believe this.. but SPEED got me again!! (I don't really know who's at fault so I'll just blame speed)

I'm on U.S. west coast time -- I checked the Verizon guide listing before going to bed) This time F1 Qualifying was listed 'correctly' at 6am pt. I got up at 5am - playing on the internet - turn on the tube at 5:50 am -- F1 knockout qualifying is already nearing the end in Q2!!

NOOOOO!!! (I couldn't believe it.) The gods must hate me! Well, At least I got to see driver after driver getting bumped as final Q2 laps crossed the line. Q3 was a must see. Thank God I got to see it. I'll leave some fresh sacrificial fruit at the feet of the racing gods next time - (to make sure it doesn't happen again. ) I almost missed it. AAargghh!
