I take it if you only have a Freeview box you are still knackered?

Only through dish or cable as far as I can make out, maybe even need at least an old sky box+card if it's through a dish.

If I can get Sky to work on Sunday, then it'll be my first time sampling it for myself! My golly how exciting. There'll be some hot discussion in the chatroom

To be honest, the Sky coverage is nothing special; the only reason I watch Sky is because I prefer Martin Brundle's commentary, overall I'd say the BBC coverage is better content wise.

This seems to be pretty much in line with what most people seem to be saying.

Fernando has arrived at the German GP with his new girlfriend. You do have to admire his taste

 wrote:">Alonso arrives in Hockenheim with new Russian model girlfriend

Jul.19 (Apex) Fernando Alonso arrived in the Hockenheim paddock on Thursday, ahead of the German GP weekend, flaunting his new flame Russian model Dasha Kapustina who he was seen partying with earlier this year during the grand prix weekend in China.



Alonso announced last year in December last year that his five year marriage to Spanish pop star Raquel del Rosario was over. Since then he was said to be romancing Swiss model Xenia Tchoumitcheva.

Recently a number of websites have published some pictures of Alonso apparently partying with the blonde lady who has since been identified as 22 year old Dasha, a model who has worked with several leading fashion designers including the likes of Karl Lagerfeld.

At Hockenheim on Thursday it appeared that the affair has now become public, as Dasha and Alonso walked through the paddock and past a horde of photographers on their way to the Ferrari area in the paddock.

That first picture made me giggle at first... she looks completely uninterested in him!

Probably texting something like "With my latest toyboy, catch you girls later for some tea time updates! xoxoxo"

[vlad]

Haha, you guys...


Bloody rain again! Not an interesting session, but, at least it was nice for Button.

What a day for my son to smash my 50" plasma. Again. It takes me at least a few days to replace it.

WTF?
If I was you, I wouldn't replace the kid after I'm done - I'd leave it MISplaced for a loooong time!
