    “It can cost up to US$720 a year if you want to get full access to NBC Formula 1 coverage for a season.”

    This is ludicrous. Who can afford this? Who would pay this for NBC’s coverage? Especially if they’ve ever viewed SkySportsF1 total and comprehensive coverage of a race weekend? SkySportsF1 must find away to globally broadcast their coverage as it’s the best & most comprehensive coverage.

      Plus. The almost constant commercials interrupt to the point I will switch to the Spanish channel so I can at least e able to watch the race even though I can’t understand Spanish

    I agree totally! The F.I.A keep banging on about how, not only to attract new fans to F1, but also to maintain current fans loyalty to the sport, so it’s a laughable really to see these ridiculous costs involved to subscribe in order to follow the F1 season! This does nothing but alienate the very core of the population that they say they are wanting to attract to the sport!
    I am a Virgin Media customer, and for me to get the entire F1 season live, I am expected to add a total of £36 per month on top of my current subscription for the pleasure, an amount that is simply unaffordable!
    This needs sorting out once and for all. Try thinking more about the fans than the pocket!

    Sadly to get F1 in Australia now I have to pay $50 per month just to watch on Foxtel. All open air coverage is gone.

    If you have skyid, can you watch it via a streaming connection on the laptop? I travel allot, and it would be nice to be able to log in, and watch the race

    Yep I am a Brit living in France, if I were to pay Canal to view F1 the comentary would be in French, so Sky and Bernie lose another customer. Barry.
