Great, Heidfeld and Rubens dont run in 2nd qually presumably to save their engines :rolleyes:

Hey Mad Max and FIA! sort the rules out you *****!

They didn't run since they were taking 20 and 10 place drops respectively - no point in running.

If I paid all that money to go and see the race i'd be well ****** off. 2 front running cars not going out! If we did not have these stupid rules they would have gone out! :mad:

Calling all Northern Ireland F1 fans......

Ok, anybody ever watched qualy via Setanta Sports Ireland? Looks like its £12.99 per month & subscription line only opens at 8am. It is meant to the Republic of Ireland only channel, yet it tells you how to subscribe if you are in Northern Ireland...... Has anyone done this and what's the quality of the service like?

Phoned them: it doesnt send you the F1 stuff; only the football you get in NI cos ITV have the TV broadcast rights to GP in UK. I thought there was gonna be a loophole there cos it gave u a number to phone for NI......

I tried......

Listened to it on Five Live but just not the same as watching it...

I listen on Five Live SportsX and watch the timings on here: http://www.formula1.com/race/livetiming/736.html
Next best thing to TV coverage, certainly better than paying £12.99 a month!

Same here! As soon as the qualifying is back to a saturday the better...... My Saturday night chat down the pub is not as good as we dont know the final qually results

Use the timing and watch it at the same time. Great feature you can se who is going faster before ITV tells you

Coco · 8 May 2005 at 12:47

Second - Alonso

Schueys engine's gonna go boooooooooooom!

What was meant by "after the complains about san marino normal service has been resumed"?

That they won't smash a break on while the most exciting final 3laps in F1 over the last 5 years un-fold. How kind of them.

Now, lets hope we actually see some overtaking on the track. Radical concept I know, but the lack of it might explain why F1 has become as dull as a medium sized rock.

In a bag.

I see they are getting the ads out of the way!
How about getting rid of them full stop!!

Richard T · 8 May 2005 at 14:06
