United States Grand Prix 2015, Austin - Race 16/19

Sky Sports F1 doesn't appear to be on the Android app anymore.

Apparently changing your time to be an hour ahead works?! Sky's DRM is playing silly sods and not recognising that it's GMT now not BST!

It works for a bit then errors out so I wouldn't rely on it for the race. Maybe it's related to the hurricane.

Delayed 1510 start for Q3.

Listening to qualifying on the radio is not quite the same!

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:59

Session delayed 15 minutes.

If they delay this much more they're going to finish their final Q3 lap and go line up on the grid!

My sky go is working fine..

Nowtv is working perfectly as is the TV channel.

I'd imagine it's pretty much the same as watching it right now, there's nothing going on. All you're missing is a truck driving round blowing water off the track

A lot of people on Twitter complaining about SkyGo, even football watchers.

Hopefully the race doesn't get cancelled.

Edit: Grats to Rosberg on the pole - Vettel to start P15 then, could be worse.

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:03

Q3 cancelled.

Rosberg has pole.
Hamilton P2.
Vettel will be in 15th.

Im watching the football on the PC and the F1 on android - sky go with no problems yet

el_dazza · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:04

Ok, SSF1 has now totally vanished from the android app...

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:05

Ros doing what's needed at the right time. Shame he can't do that more often, otherwise we might of had a championship.

Now will it stop raining before race.

Freakbro · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:06

Oh god, we could have a safety car led 'race' from the start

It'd better stop raining soon

CaptainRAVE · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:08

Could be an amazing race...could also be decided on luck unfortunately...or worse, cancelled.

Suzuka last year was shaping up to be the best race of the year, until... yeah.

I have high hopes for CotA too, assuming it stops raining, or at least goes back to light rain.

My Sky box stopped recording just as Q1 restarted after the red flag

Mine did the same. Then it wouldn't let me set it to record again.

The risk with the race is that this is it. They start under the SC, do 2 laps and then cancel it. So the results will be as they line up on the grid but with half points.

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 15:19

Be rubbish for us, but wouldn't it be good for ham half points.

Indeed, he would be laughing.
