Wrong thread. Embarassed

I am so in trouble.
With F1 no longer available on tv, if i still want to watch it i have to acquire the services of another digital cable company.
Problem is that company will show F1 on its Sports channel, but instead they don't have Eurosport, which means i will miss cycling, snooker, athletics, winter sports and many more. What the hell i'm going to do?

Sad

If you really want Eurosport you could buy the online version. (this depends on your net connection + bandwidth). I use it for GP2. It was £30 for the year Smile

You mean the Eurosport player? Or there is another type of connection available?

You can't love the Competition Office (or whatever they are named) from our country. These kind of things already happens for some time and they didn't even bother to do something.

That's right. They have taken all the good sports from the channels that are available for anybody in any network and moved them on private channels. Making us to pay big bucks to see them.

I think i will have to switch from UPC to RCS and subscribe to Eurosport Player. Its the only alternative i can see. Though will cost me more.

You want my advice? Stay with UPC for Eurosport and buy a VPN which has UK IPs and watch the race online through BBC.

Lighty does BBC broadcast the race online?

by **GUP** on Sat Mar 26, 2011 8:04 pm

Will have to consider and get more informations.

by **lightmas** on Sat Mar 26, 2011 8:10 pm

Yes the BBC does broadcast the race online Smile

Had some friends over for dinner. They complained about how they were stood up a couple weeks ago from a pre-arranged restaurant dinner gig with other friends.

I don’t f***'n care. Thank god they left. We choose the friends we have....why? What is it about them that allow us to choose them as friends? Its fun complaining about how stupid a family member is...because we know we can’t ostracize him/her.

But tonight...I’m getting heart burn or something....because these two are nuts....I don’t know. I'm tierd.

Good night

After 3 racing days, with an average of 3,5 hours of sleep per night, i am feeling soooo sleepy. Sleep

by **GUP** on Sun Mar 27, 2011 9:13 pm

Oh and tomorrow i'm going to ask the other cable company about their services. I cannot live without F1, that's insane. Shocked

I looked on their website and they show everything live, all practice sessions, quali, race, before and after the race. I need it!! mrgreen

Good news, i took the list of channels from this provider, and Eurosport is listed as one of the channels available. Maybe the person that informed me its not among his channels is having issues with the tv, that is an older generation model, and might not catch everything.

Wish me luck, if everything goes right, in two weeks i see Formula 1 on tv. Very Happy

by **lightmas** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 10:58 pm

Good luck GUPster Smile

Thanks!

by **lightmas** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:16 pm

I hope live timing works properly next race.

by **GUP** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:18 pm

Remember what i said. You have to open it long time before the race. They have some sort of accessing problem. I did that for the race with 1.5 hours before, and i had absolutely no problem with it for most of the race, until i was stupid to refresh the wrong page. And then disaster happen, i could never load it back.

by **lightmas** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:24 pm

I didnt hear u say that...but i was sleeping 1.5 hours before the race

by **lightmas** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:24 pm

and also it worked perfectly for 20 laps...

by **GUP** on Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:25 pm

Yeah i mention it in the live thread. Doesn't matter now. Thankfuly Malaysia is a bit later. Very Happy

by **GUP** on Wed Mar 30, 2011 12:15 am

And i have a contract!! Very Happy

F1 is getting closer. And i will be able to see everything live, practice, quali, race. king
