So many places to so very quickly and easily download the races in wonderful HD quality, but none of them (that I can find) paid and legal.
I find it hard to believe with all the Netflix (paid streaming) and Hulu (ad supported streaming) and Amazon (paid downloads) going on that F1, so advanced supposedly seems so far behind the times.

Of course maybe I'm missing something obvious?

Please help. I'd love to see it legally.

You cannot download any races legally because Bernie is oblivious to the internet.

The only legal route is recording the live broadcast and transferring them to your hard drive.

hmm... i did not know of the existence of ANY sites to download these races in HD quality, legal or otherwise. Bernie should start services that let us watch races online. I wouldn't mind a paid service as I am paying for it right now in the US anyway. My monitor is much better than my TV.

There is alot of room for improvement in regard to F1 & the Internet.

I don't know the live timings are good.

Can you not download it of iPlayer?

Even if you can get the full race, the download lasts a few days.

Why can't you just record the race's live to VHS like I have done for 25+yr's??

Yes, Ecclestone is oblivious to most forms of modern technology, which is a surprise given his unscrupulous nature. It's the same with FOM not even having an HD feed.

You still using VHS Tex? Wow, retro!

You might want to transfer some of those old races to DVD, Gregg, before the tapes start to go.

Not even DVD, but VHS!! People in Texas probably think a Blu Ray is some kind of aquatic mammal.

VHS?

I stopped using those last century some time... Watched one recently and was astonished at how poor quality it was.

Can you still buy blank tapes? I've never seen any in shops for ages. I have a tonne of old Star Trek episodes on VHS

Or a movie about someone called Debbie.

If old school get's me a recorded race then why would I try to fix something that is not broken? I ain't as good as I once was but I'm as good once as I ever was .
