Palace Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 all f1 races have always been shown live in Southeast Asia, India and HK by Starsports (at least for more than a decade now). the typical coverage is the live qualifying on saturday (for singapore gp, it's 9pm BKK time), a one-hour pre-race program on sunday called "Race Day", and right after that, the live race coverage itself (again, for sg gp, it's 7 pm BKK time). after the race, there's another 1-hour wrap up program, the "Checkered Flag". as a special coverage for the Singapore GP (singapore being the hub of Star Asia tv), they are showing the Friday practice sessions starting at 8pm BKK time.

bravingbangkok Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Vettel 10th fastest!! Did anyone really think his win at Monza was anything more than pure luck with the weather?Hero to zero. He just got out early in Monza and thus got pole, If it was not for the mclaren team f'ing up again with the weather Hamilton would have won that race. He was lucky with the weather although I rate him to be an up and coming star no doubt about it. I imagine he will move onto rari after he finishes at Red Bull which he is moving to next year to replace Coultard. Deffo one to look for in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatently running on fumes, just another publicity stunt Lewis will storm to pole tomorrow, he did not even look as though he was trying, Massa took over as quickest and Hamilton just comes out and goes faster in two laps, Massa did way more laps then Hamilton because he needs to little twerp !

soihok Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I have just got back home from watching the F1 practice here in Singers. What a show,,first time I have seen a F1 car and with all the spectacle of a night race here it really was an experience. The stands have been erected only for this event,the city centre closed down and the whole place is gripped by F1 fever. I am really a lover of Motorbikes but the speeds that these cars get to and slow down from is really incredible. Also,the road circuit is new to all the drivers which makes this quite an historic event. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else thinking that Steve Slater is trying to win "the most irritating commentator of the year award", recently vacated by Murray Walker. James Hunt RIP. We miss you.

dominique355 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 If - like me - you could imagine a better commentator on Starsport than Steve "absolutely" Slater, watch the Live Timing on www.formula 1.com and get all the information you need to follow the race. I use it to monitor lap times and gaps between the cars. It really gives me a good picture on how the race develops, who is catching up, who looses time and where. I liked that Starsport showed even the free practices live this time. Way to go! I wish they would do that for every race. Back in Europe I had a sports channel with 5 sub channels to watch the race from different angles: Main mix, Pit lane, On board, Back markers, Statistics. I really miss that.

rixalex Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Overall the F1 coverage is pretty bad. This year it seems worse than others. What's most annoying is the ad breaks, which always seem to come at bad times. Even when there aren't ad breaks, you quite often miss the important stuff as the producers concentrate on the wrong battle. For example, how about at Spa when Hamilton messed up on the first corner of the second lap, allowing Kimi a run on him up through Eau Rouge. <deleted> was the cameraman focusing on?!!! How can you miss the leading car coming through?! Another thing that has been sorely lacking is stats as to who is closing in on who. Too often you just get the placings without the times to show where the action is happening. And as for Steve Slater, yes he does have his irritating moments, but not in the same league as Murray Walker. Despite him, BBC's coverage was fantastic and i miss it so much. It really did a great job of building the atmosphere and excitement before the green lights illuminated. I'm happy to hear that BBC have won coverage back from ITV, which like Star Sports does a pretty bad job. Just a shame we won't be able to get it out here. Anyway, on a more positive note, the night race in Singapore looks fantastic visually. Just hope it makes for a good race. I thought that Valencia, another street race, was terrible - no overtaking whatsoever. Hope this evening is not like that. Fingers crossed. Go Hamilton!
