This is about Sky but since we don't have it here and I want to vent ,I'll talk about how dissapointed I am.There were 4 channels demanding to broadcast F1 by 2012.I didn't really want one of them to get but now it did.It is not even a channel it is a satellite TV provider,which we don't have so we'll have to pay someting around 25 Euros to get it.Ah come on!Also,in Turkey people start to follow F1 by coming across when swithcing channels,now people won't even have that chance!


Thats bad. Even in UK where F1 is firmly entrenched I think they'll loose loads of viewers because of it going to SKY.


The true fans will remain loyal. 8-)

To F1 yes. But the casual viewers and potential future hardcore fans may be lost

Who cares about them*, they smell for not being die-hards like us.... :D

*this is a joke, I obviously understand the importance with generating new and more committed fans.

The day that F1 goes on Pay tv in Australia is the day I will get it, must have F1 for me to watch, don't know what i'll will do without. But I think where pretty safe down here, considering we also get Nascar on free to air as well for some reason.

But not many new fans will come :) That's what makes me nervous about this


Here in Turkey,we will ''probably'' have a channel which will broadcast F1,but we are trying to guess if it is probably or certainly.Also if certain which channel will it be.There are less than 2 weeks btw :wavey: If one of those options get F1,we will have to pay for the sports package for a year at a price of something like 20 Euros .We'd pay that ,but I hope another channel gets!


Merhaba! :wavey:


Merhaba,do you speak Turkish btw? :D Or used a translator?

Take note. :)


Oh God no, don't watch this it's FREE. You'll have the PPV Police around trying to make you feel guilty for not signing up to SKY... :hehe:


They'd come round, see my Sky, then leave.

I don't know anyone not even the bogans that like V8SC who also follow NASCAR.

I think because of Marcus Ambrose going there is a main reason.
