A new deal between Fox Sports and Network Ten that will see just 10 Formula 1 races shown live on free-to-air will start this season.

Statements announcing the five-year agreement confirm that the subscription service will carry live coverage of practice, qualifying and races from this season.

Ten of those races will also be simulcast live on Network Ten, which had exclusively hosted F1 in Australia since 2003.

The free-to-air station will continue to broadcast all sessions from Albert Park’s Australian Grand Prix as part of the agreement.

The 10 races that are exclusively live on Fox Sports will be seen on Ten’s sub-channel One HD in 60 minute highlights form at 9:30pm on the following Monday.

So to conclude. Murdoch can go eat a d!ck. So can channel 10. Actually particularly channel 10. Don't sign contracts to not show sh!t just so you can broadcast endless repeats of mash or the home shopping channel or whatever other steaming load of crap you have dredged up from somewhere that people give no fk for. No wonder your going broke. Just hurry up and get done with it instead of fking everyone about.

Nobody watches highlight packages of motor races. They are inherently sh!t.

:verymad:

List of races channel ten will be showing - amazingly they are all the sh!t ones.

This is definitely the most boring year of F1 I've watched, Mercedes dominance aside. Hopefully they can sort it out sooner rather than later

Thats a real bastard act, I loved getting up early(or staying up late to watch) and being super out of it at work the next day.

Couple of questions, can anyone link me to the stream? (pm would be appreciated)

Would I need cable for a decent feed?

Has anyone been to the Japanese GP?

Accommodation is booked, but where are the best seats vs price to be had?

Also same question for the Singapore GP as ill be trying to get to that one this year too.

I don't really mind AJ that much, but alot has changed since he raced, the person I most miss is Cromley.

Singapore itself is better than the Singapore GP. Best place to watch it from is the pool at the Marina Bay Sands hotel. Avoid the stand on the shoreline above the soccer field as you cant see shit from there. Other places are ok - best is probably turn 1/2.

f**k Channel 10, it's about time they lost the righs (albeit only partially).

I'm guessing Foxtel will show all the pre race stuff from the UK guys, which shits all over the four and half minute pre race that Rust and Jones do these days on 10.

pre-race is just the stuff you've been readng about on the internet since the previous race anyway. post race stuff, ted's notebook etc we've all been watching free on the interwebs for years. Not worth $75 per extra race!!! (Min cost is $750 according to Foxtel site) Imagine paying that and then falling asleep on the couch before it starts! lol

Welp this is bullshit, since 2007 i always watch fp1/2 and most of the time fp3, sometimes the sky sports f1 show as well. Always watch quali and the race live. I highly doubt I'll get foxtel for this, I'd rather go to bed early and download it the next day, the hardest thing is staying in a media blackout until I watch it. I can't watch a race if I know who wins it its just not the same.

Mind you if the championship gets close I can see myself forking out the dough, fuuuuuu foxtel I never thought I'd see the day I'd pay you a cent!

Guys I've just had my second child and am

Certainly going to struggle to get foxtel. Are there cheaper alternatives? Where can you download the race from that you mentioned?

Either way it's a shit situation, if I can get up early enough the next morning I can download it and watch it before work.

Soo many swear words but still not enough that allow me to express my feelings about channel 10 and foxtels decision!!

I never find the time to read articles so I like the pre race... And I always watch a live stream, only using channel 10 for hd picture when they're not missing a 1/4 of the race through ad breaks...

Plus with motogp and the AFL on foxtel, I don't mind paying

I have 2 coax lines for the dish, Think it has something to do with the dual tuners built into the box? There are provisions for 4 coax lines in the back.

I'm waiting for the new box to come out at the moment anyway. Should have wireless. Otherwise its easier to do what I do, just buy a range extender, disable the wifi from it and use it as a network hub for your TV, foxtel box etc

As long as you've already got the connection points it's just power, Foxtel fibre, telephone line and your video out eg hdmi

Got no connection points just the standard coax point for free to air at the moment...What's the phone line used for with Foxtel?

Should be an ethernet port for internet features like on demand shows.

New box coming out soon apparently has wireless

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
