As I didnt get back from london till late yesterday, I overslept missing the live race broadcast. Never mind thought I, I'll watch the re run this afternoon, only to find the flamin BBC did not show any pre race show and missed the start and the first eight laps of the race! I'm really pissed off about that. I dont care if the race did start off under the Safety Car its still part of the race. I was dropped cold into the race with no build up of tension what so ever. Looks like I'll have to record all the early morning races live as I cant trust the Beeb not to cut lumps off the grand prix. Shades of the seventies and eighties there , when they used to cut to Cricked of bowling during the middle of a GP.Jesus on an effing bike!!!

Yep typical I briefly tuned in to see part of the replay (out of boredom) and was shocked by the amount of editing.

Isnt the full race on I-player? Im not sure, but im at work so I cant check it. Company dont think the BBC website is suitable for work! Viva las Pendragon!

Yes the first laps are on the i player version. but I always record the GP's for my own viewing pleasure. and its annoying !
