So how are we going to be able to view it online, if we don't have sky? Any ideas ?

Sky tv do daily or weekly fanpass now. Sky sport 1-4 for 15/day or 20/week if you want a legal stream.

vipbox or cricfree - there will be a number of excellent quality streams. Im sure on the morning everyone will help each other to find the best one.

I fly back to Aussie on 27th when we start setting up the two Supercheap Stores. Work right through and pull them down after racing finishes. Yes get time off to watch the racing and full access to everywhere. Hope Ford wins again

I'd be more interesting in watching it if wasn't just a Holden/Ford pissing contest.

Bench seat, pudding basin helmet, cotton overalls, lap seat belt and a huge set of 'nads!
Don't they all have some same "control" components (chassis or engine) though ? Either way, I much preferred and watched when the cars were actually identical in body/wheel size (and 99% of engine) to what you could buy and see on the road. The big difference in speed, especially with the group A, B, C class cars made it more interesting re: passing etc. also. I appreciate close racing but it was interesting to see if that "2litre class Alfa" was going to hold up the Grp A leader and let the next car catch up and vice-versa. Even if a Nissan Skyline/Ford Sierra was leading by 2 laps, at least there was different size/speed/shape vehicles to watch passing each other. Now it's watching cars mostly the same speed that just look sort of like a normal one, and the notion of supporting a "Brand" especially is just a joke.

Motor racing, I can take it or leave it, but I'd rather watch classic racing if I was going to watch anything.

I find that like when rugby went to paid viewing, I just end up watching less of it. I used to casually follow it on TV, it was a nice way to spend a slack sunday arvo after the lawns were cut.

Next weekend (12/13th) just as good. Icebreaker meeting with over 200 entries.
Agree with #13. That used to be probably the best motorsport TV ever - and I have a long, long memory, which goes back to the 1950s.
