Who has the channel and times for Australia?
All I can find is 10 pm on NBC sports Saturday night.

Nothing for free practice and qualifying. I'm not even sure I have the channel correct for the race. My luck is it will be on NBC proper for some reason...or NBC golf...

Found it. It's on NBC sports. Now trying to find if its advertised ET or what. Apparently it will be late night watching or record and don't look at media until after watching it in the morning.

I see that practice 1 and 3, qualifying and the race are on. Practice two is live stream only. I guess liberty hasn't changed anything. I hope NBC doesn't show the whole race in PIP again. It was rediculous by the end of last season.

I don't think Formula 1 is or was doing any restrictions for NBC. NBC just sucks.

Everyone needs to go to every F1 forum they can find and have people start an email/fb campaign telling nbc they suck. I'd love to have sky sports. Or email/fb Liberty and tell them NBC sucks.

My mommy told me I was special but apparently not special enough to warrant a reply when I *****ed myself to them...

I'd rather listen to the reject Aussie crew and the goofy American former pit guy, than a thrown-together crew of Americans trying to cover it all. Kind of like how NBC covers the English Premier League. Use a crew that is English and maybe not good enough to be on the BBC, but a whole lot better than all the dumbass Americans Fox uses to cover the sport.

I saw a F1 wheel at SEMA and thought it was a trash can.

Thoughts on the race?
I thought it was pretty exciting.
I thought Hamiltons head was going to explode when he could not get by Red Bull /Ver.
Merc would have won no problem he Hamilton had go by.

Looks like Ferrari are going to make Mercedes work a little bit harder for the title this year?

If they can keep up in qualifying and have a decent start they will compete each race.
And if people like VER keep hamilton behind him and not let him pass they have a shot!
